Revelation
R J Dent’s novel, Revelation is the story of a married woman who agrees to fulfil one of her husband’s sexual fantasies – only to discover that a beautiful gift can become a malevolent curse. After one act of decadent abandon, she is drawn into a maelstrom of emotional devastation that threatens to destroy everything she holds dear, leading her to make the ultimate sacrifice…
‘There’s neither blame nor guilt on anyone’s part for what happened. And even if I were to want to apportion blame, I can’t think who the right person to blame would be. But I don’t want to point any accusing fingers because at the time everyone had a very lovely time…’

From the publisher:
‘Revelation by R J Dent is a disturbing and chilling short novel dealing with the death of affect in human relationships, and the emotional and moral vacuum growing in the heart of our western society – encapsulated in the form of a marriage spiralling into disaster and almost insanity. When I read this I thought ‘I’ve found the thinking man’s Ian McEwan’. It’s very, very good and very, very nasty.’
