The New York Times bestselling masterpiece - a daring look at the dangers of obsession and the depth of its shattering consequences

''Damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive.''

Damage is the gripping story of a man''s desperate obsession and scandalous love affair. He is a man who appears to have everything: wealth, a beautiful wife and children, and a prestigious political career in Parliament. But his life lacks passion, and his aching emptiness drives him to an all-consuming and ultimately catastrophic relationship with his son''s fiancee.

''A taut, sinister tale of erotic obsession'' Vanity Fair

''The effect is powerful: here is naked obsession, sulfurous, total, scarcely possible to live with'' Financial Times

''The reader looks on with mingled shock and fascination. A tour de force'' New York Times

''Unputdownable is here, for once, not hyperbolic'' Ruth Rendell

''Damage is a masterpiece'' Washington Post

''Passionate, elegant, ruthless'' Iris Murdoch

Industry Reviews

"To read this tale of mutual obsession is like being abducted. Josephine Hart has managed to create a portrait of psychological and erotic obsession that is so compelling as, for a brief moment, to suck all the oxygen out of the air." --"Los Angeles Times" "A taut, sinister tale of erotic obsession." --"Vanity Fair" ""Damage" is a masterpiece." --"The Washington Post" "The violent dreamscape of "Damage" stayed with me long after I closed the book. Did I dream it? Did I live it? My very uncertainty tells me I have read something rare." --Erica Jong, author of "Fear of Flying"" ""The effect is powerful: here is naked obsession, sulphurous, total, scarcely possible to live with." --"Financial Times"
