Her face at first breaks into a contemptuous grin; then into a parody of an orgasmic expression. She joins her husband, lies on their bed, and lifts her nightgown to show her bleeding. Gleefully mocking his sexual desires, she takes blood on her fingers, smears it on her mouth, and licks it suggestively...

She clambered to the top of the kitchen range for a closer view, nudged the gas burner and her nightgown all but exploded in flames. It took 97 days and eleven skin grafts before she could leave the hospital. Even so she was luckier than many others. The Government estimates that 3,000 to 5,000 Americans die each year from burns, many associated with flammable clothing and interior furnishings. Another...
