On 5 November 1991, Robert Maxwell's bloated corpse was found floating in the South Atlantic. The official verdict was accidental drowning, but the sudden and mysterious death of this infamous newspaper tycoon provoked no less rumour, speculation, anger and outrage than his headline-grabbing life. But was Maxwell simply a monster, or was he the victim of racism and snobbery? What drove a penniless Czechoslovakian Jew, who lost almost his entire family in the Holocaust, to such heights and such depths? In this punchily written, confrontational monologue, Maxwell gets his own say, providing a fascinating case study in power and charm, insecurity and greed.
