Quote:The reaction to the rape (or a believed rape) of one's wife or other family member would strike me as a far more powerful visceral response, at its root, in a short time span, temporary insanity, than a methodical corraling and drowning of your own five children.
I can't comment on the "power" of post-partum depression, but I can assure you that if what I thought was my wife's rapist was parked in my driveway, he'd be a dead or severely injured man, the law be damned.
But whate'er I be,
Nor I, nor any man that is,
With nothing shall be pleased till he be eased
With being nothing.
William Shakespeare - Richard II
