Learn moreOn an August night in 1986, Jennifer Levin left a Manhattan bar with Robert Chambers. The next morning, her strangled, battered body was found in Central Park. Linda Wolfe goes beyond the headlines and media hype to re-create a story of a teenager whose immigrant mother was determined to make a better life for her son, a petty thief and drug user who'd been expelled from the best schools. It's all here, from the initial police investigation, during which Chambers claimed Levin died accidentally during rough sex, to the media frenzy of the courtroom, where Chambers took an eleventh-hour plea. Wasted powerfully depicts the freewheeling 1980's society that spawned a generation steeped in violence and the fatal impulses that drove Robert Chambers to kill.
Linda Wolfe is the author of five true-crime books including The Professor and the Prostitute and Other True Tales of Murder and Madness. She is also the author of My Daughter, Myself, a memoir. Wolfe's has written for a wide variety of magazines, among them Vanity Fair, the New York Times Magazine, and New York Magazine, of which she was a contributing editor. She currently writes a column about books for the website www.FabOverFifty.com.
