A slow and haunted journey into murder - the murder of soul by possessive love; murder of heart by familial pride; and final murder of the flesh. This is Peter Feibleman's second novel. The protagonist is Edmund Choate, and the web is spun around his first and second wives and his daughters.
"The Daughters of Necessity" is a fascinating journey into the unconscious world of love and hatred. These two emotions seem to be opposite but exist very close under our unconsciousness. Peter Feibleman draws the fuzzy world very well in a sophisticated and beautiful way with European scent. How can we get out of no-exit-chaos between love and burden, when we feel a kind of heavy burden from the love "between Father and Daughter" or "between Mother and Son"? No one has an exact answer to this question but we can feel something from the ending of this novel.
