Book description
Harold Schechter's "Deranged" pulls back the curtain on one of America's most disturbing true crime cases, delivering a chilling audiobook experience that's both meticulously researched and genuinely unsettling.
Schechter, a professor of American literature and true crime specialist, brings his academic rigor to bear on the horrifying story of Albert Fish-a man whose crimes were so beyond comprehension that experts called him the most deranged human being they'd ever encountered.
The narrative centers on the 1928 disappearance of six-year-old Grace Budd, lured from her family home by Fish's deceptive kindness. What unfolds is a methodical exploration of pure evil, tracing Fish's trail of unspeakable violence across nearly a decade. Schechter doesn't sensationalize the gore but presents the facts with clinical precision, letting the horror speak for itself.
Listening to this audiobook feels like sitting through a masterclass in criminal psychology, albeit one that will leave you checking your locks twice. Schechter's background in literature serves him well-his prose is clean, direct, and utterly compelling. The pacing builds tension naturally, moving from the initial abduction through the exhaustive investigation to Fish's eventual capture and the shocking revelations that followed.
What makes "Deranged" particularly effective is how Schechter contextualizes Fish within early 20th-century America, shattering any illusions that such monsters are purely modern phenomena. His examination of contemporary press coverage and public reaction adds valuable historical depth without slowing the narrative momentum.
This isn't light listening-Schechter's unflinching approach to Fish's crimes, including his cannibalistic tendencies and sexual predation, earns every bit of the book's rating. But for true crime enthusiasts seeking a well-crafted, thoroughly researched account of one of America's most infamous killers, "Deranged" delivers exactly what its title promises.
