![]() ![]() Slaveholders and prison guards typically use contempt and scorn to destroy their victims’ self-esteem. Particularly abusive parents deepen the abandonment trauma by linking corporal punishment with contempt. The child’s bid for bonding and acceptance is thwarted, and she is left to suffer in the frightened despair of abandonment. Before long, the child gives up on seeking any kind of help or connection at all. Rage creates fear, and disgust creates shame in the child in a way that soon teaches her to refrain from crying out, from ever asking for attention.

Somehow, when they try, what they write jars in some way with me. Modern writers simply cannot write the same way as someone from the late nineteenth century. Horowitz has created a book which keeps the feeling of Doyle’s writing without copying the style exactly. And now that I’ve finished reading The House of Silk, I can confirm that he has indeed done a great job.
