Karen Molyneux is a journalist, author of numerous articles about the cult of permissiveness, violence and sexuality. Her first novel, “Lunch,” was warmly received by critics, but she achieved true fame only after the release of “Belladonna.” This is truly a novel about revenge, or, more precisely, about retribution. He is often compared to “The Count of Monte Cristo” by A. Dumas, and quite rightly. Behind the sharp adventure plot lies a true, terrible drama that has distorted the lives of more than one person. A young girl is kidnapped and held captive for thirteen long years, during which she suffers endless humiliation and abuse. In the end, having found friends, Belladonna, already a mature woman, escapes from captivity. From now on, she has one goal - to avenge herself. But what can her revenge lead to, how will it affect those around her, whose destinies will be sacrificed to her? She doesn't think about it. Bye.
