An era-defining novel about the relationship
between a fifteen-year-old girl and her teacher
ALL HE DID WAS FALL IN LOVE WITH ME AND THE WORLD
TURNED HIM INTO A MONSTER
Vanessa Wye was fifteen-years-old when she
first had sex with her English teacher.
She is now thirty-two and in the storm of
allegations against powerful men in 2017, the teacher, Jacob Strane, has just
been accused of sexual abuse by another former student.
Vanessa is horrified by this news, because
she is quite certain that the relationship she had with Strane wasn't abuse. It
was love. She's sure of that.
Forced to rethink her past, to revisit
everything that happened, Vanessa has to redefine the great love story of her
life - her great sexual awakening - as rape. Now she must deal with the
possibility that she might be a victim, and just one of many.
Nuanced, uncomfortable, bold and powerful, My
Dark Vanessa goes straight to the heart of some of the most complex issues of
our age.
