The big book of revenge
Article Abstract:
There are mixed views about whether books by the wives of famous men really contribute anything of biographical value to the general public's knowledge of these men. Objective biographers are keen to use frank insights into their subject's life, but they also attempt to achieve a balance. This is not the case with wives, especially those who have been treated badly. Adele Mailer has written a very negative account of her life with Norman Mailer, for example, while Pamela Marvin is rather more forgiving about Lee Marvin.

They make do with a time-share husband

Three wives whose husbands have been constantly unfaithful tell their stories. The first woman leaves her husband after seeing a counsellor about their daughter.

The third woman, entertainer Marti Caine, has developed a theory from her experience that men who have a series of mistresses share a certain personality type.
