The narrative builds on historical facts and then moves away from them to a different reality. Everything moves and spins in this dizzying book. But the seeming arbitrariness obeys immutable, albeit unusual, laws. And the eerie life stories of Beatrice Cenci, the Marquise de Brenvilliers, and Augusta Fulham illustrate Shakespeare's words, "Lord, we know who we are, but we know not what we may become."
