Summary

Caroline Darian’s book reveals her father’s abuse of her mother, including drugging and inviting strangers to rape her.

Darian also discovered disturbing photographs of herself, leading her to question whether she was also a victim of her father’s abuse. “How could he have photographed me in the middle of the night without waking me? Did he also drug me? Worse still, did he abuse me?”

The trial of Dominique Pelicot and 50 other men accused of raping his wife continues, with expert testimony suggesting the perpetrators were not ordinary men.

    This is almost getting the point of Arrandts ‘banality of evil’ comment.

    Most human evils are done by ordinary humans.

    There is nothing specially evil about Nazis.

    Fascist governments are made up of ordinary people.
