Review “Duncan’s Diary: Birth of a Serial Killer” by Duncan Moron

I could have read this book in a day at one sitting. Being a fan of
Criminal Minds and CSI type programs, it was nice to have a book that
went further than the stale, rote, listing of the “profiles” of serial
killers through facts about their lives backgr...ounds.
This book
really gets inside the mind of the killer, listing how he thinks and how
his feelings in regards to those “facts” motivate him towards his
behaviors.
Interspersed with a scathing rhetoric with the state of
life in middle class America, especially interpersonal relationships,
you can almost understand “why.”
Perhaps my judgment is clouded by
the fact that I was once married to Duncan’s ex wife! Or the fact that I
was a Therapist for a quarter century and have up front and personal
experiences with the ability of the modern relationship to be crippling
to the people involved.
The way that he presents his case it almost
seems a natural stage of life to become a serial killer somewhere
between middle and old age.
A question I saw asked about the book was
whether it was a Horror book. I suppose some people will be horrorfied
about the seamingless transition from ordinary guy to serial killer,
but I suspect more people will be aghast that they can identify!!!
The
ending is perfectly befitting the crime and the only drawback I can see
is that I could have done without the Epilogue.
My recommendation,
Read It.
