Charismatic revelations,

This review is from: The Life and Crimes of Charles Sobhraj (Hardcover)
I read this book several times in the eighties - I was reading as many titles as I could find on charismatic psychopaths. Ed Sanders "The Family" was another excellent read. Neville's story of CJ's rampant career across Asia was fascinating - he seduces us even from the page. I love/hate the charismatic trigger that all humans respond to - is it a genetic imperative to resond to this rare attribute in someone to ensure that we follow leaders? Few modern leaders have this charisma essence anyway - see Australian PM John Howard - maybe we need more Charismatics, and damn the odd psychopath as a necessary part of the deal. Collateral Damage, as the Yanks like to say...Get this book, however you can, and enjoy. |
