The Queen of the Night
She is every inch a woman - and every bit a Nazi. Edmonde, beautiful and depraved, who quotes Shakespeare, then screams "Seig Heil" and plunges into orgies of impossible desire and brutal savagery. Edmonde, who moves from bedroom to bedroom, woman to woman, from beerhall to bunker in the twilight world of the Nazi pantheon. The Queen Of The Night parallels the moral slide of the Third Reich with the sexual and violent excesses of an amoral amorous woman. The result is a bizarrely beautiful novel - a savage satire, brilliant and macabre.
