We know these stories most of them anyway: the destruction wrought by Kennedy men. Theres JFKs constant priapic propositioning of White House interns, his cruelty to Jackie and to Marilyn; Bobbys sexual competition with his older brother; the hours Mary Jo Kopechne spent alive, trapped in Ted Kennedys car as her tiny pocket of air dwindled, while he dragged himself free and ran away; the macho bullying of Carolyn Bessette by JFK Jr that led to both their deaths. But seeing it all laid out, interconnected, makes this a grim but very compelling read. Irish Independent
