Leonardo's Legacy by Stefan Klein

Letters From A Whoremonger's Wife is a memoir, the story of a family. It is the story of an addiction to adultery; an addiction equal in destruction to drugs and alcohol. It is the story of a man who used his frustrations with life against his family, in the form of physical and emotional abuse; yet who, with deception and manipulation, successfully maintained an image of an ideal family man. It is the story of a wife and mother clinging to hope; a woman determined to piece together a torn and tattered family. It is a story of deceit, heartbreak, abuse, devotion, faith, grit and foolish stubbornness. It is a story of survival.
Stefan Klein, PhD, is one of Europe's leading science writers and journalists. Author of the international bestseller The Science of Happiness, and The Secret Pulse Of Time, he was awarded the Georg von Holtzbrinck Prize for Scientific Journalism. Klein lives in Berlin, Germany.
