A novel about the frightfulness and ruthlessness of being in love
Martin Lynch-Gibson believes he can possess both a beautiful wife
and a delightful lover. But when his wife, Antonia, suddenly leaves
him for her psychoanalyst, Martin is plunged into an intensive
emotional reeducation. He attempts to behave beautifully and
sensibly. Then he meets a woman whose demonic splendor at first
repels him and later arouses a consuming and monstrous passion. As
his Medusa informs him, "this is nothing to do with happiness."
"A Severed Head" was adapted for a successful stage production in
1963 and was later made into a film starring Claire Bloom, Lee
Remick, Richard Attenborough, and Ian Holm.
