The story of how one man's penny-pinching and suspicions can influence and ultimately overtake his wife's world view, to the point that, after his death, she begins scavenging for food, living in a squalid flat, and carrying all her valuables in a shopping bag. William's Wife is one of the most powerful portraits of coercive control and pathological obsession in English literature.
