The Diary of a Rapist is a bold and original piece of writing and further emphasizes the importance of Mr. Connells talent. He knows all the colors of darkness and the full sound of the hearts anguish. New York Times Book ReviewOriginally published in 1966, The Diary of a Rapist has been recognized as a classic case study as well as a daringly compassionate portrait of a man consumed by selfloathing.Earl Summerfield is a petty civil servant whose work is a dreary mixture of maddening bureaucracy and coffeebreak politics. In his diary he reflects upon his increasing detachment from the everyday world and his estrangement from his wife, which are paralleled by a growing obsession with violent crimes as reported in the local papers. Eventually, Summerfield becomes immersed in a fantasy life in which he stalks and threatens a series of women, culminating in the apparent rape of a young beauty queen. Over the course of a meticulously recorded year, as his bizarre daydreams devolve into various acts of violation, Summerfields selfdelusions of superiority begin to fall away, revealing the true decrepitude of his personality.
