Kate Fitzgerald is a rather unique individual. She is on a temporary release from prison where she was serving time for killing her husband. Why did Kate kill her husband? Was she abused? Did she come from a poverty stricken background? Was she uneducated with no real life skills?
No, in fact, Kate isn’t even sure why she killed her husband. Her search for answers to this exact question led to extensive self analysis and eventual fixation on the work of Freud. In turn, her passionate study of Freud led to a temporary release from prison to do research on the subject.
Beyond the bizarre life of Kate Fitzgerald, my favorite part of this book was Kate herself. This is an extremely strong, intelligent, driven woman full of wit and a flaw filled realistic nature.
