claire60 's review for:

A Vast Conspiracy: The Real Story of the Sex Scandal That Nearly Brought Down a President by Jeffrey Toobin

2.0

---

This book has clearly been extensively researched, much of the detail is presented to us, but rather than it being a readable gathering of what happened os we can draw our own conclusions. We have endless ramblings and assertions that are clearly shaped by the author's own views. It is clear in this book that he has a sexist view of women, he shows the same fascination for salacious detail that figured so heavily in the way this case was presented in the media, which is disappointing. It is a shame there is a good story in here fighting to get out.

With thanks to the publisher and netgalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
