The Obsession by Meyer Levin is a powerful and gripping novel that explores the dark side of human nature. The story follows the lives of three characters—a brilliant surgeon, his beautiful wife, and a mysterious stranger—as they become entangled in a web of love, betrayal, and revenge.
Dr. Markheim is a brilliant surgeon who is at the top of his profession. He is married to the beautiful and loving Nora, and they have a happy and fulfilling life together. However, their happiness is shattered when Markheim meets the mysterious stranger, a woman named Helen.
Helen is a beautiful and enigmatic woman who quickly becomes obsessed with Markheim. She uses her charms to seduce him, and soon they are having an affair. However, Markheim's affair with Helen does not remain a secret for long. Nora discovers the truth, and she is devastated. She confronts Markheim, and he is forced to confess his infidelity.
Nora is heartbroken, but she is also determined to get revenge. She hires a private detective to follow Markheim and Helen, and she soon learns that Helen is a dangerous and manipulative woman. Nora also learns that Helen has been stalking her and her husband, and that she is planning to kill them both.
Nora is terrified, but she is also determined to protect herself and her husband. She confronts Helen, and the two women have a violent confrontation. Nora is injured in the fight, but she is able to escape. She returns home and tells Markheim what has happened, and they decide to go to the police.
The police arrest Helen, and she is charged with attempted murder. Markheim and Nora are relieved that Helen is behind bars, but they know that she will never stop trying to get revenge. They live in fear for their lives, and they are never able to truly escape the obsession that has haunted them.
Characters
The Obsession features a cast of complex and well-developed characters. The main characters are:
- Dr. Markheim: A brilliant surgeon who is at the top of his profession. He is married to the beautiful and loving Nora, and they have a happy and fulfilling life together. However, their happiness is shattered when Markheim meets the mysterious stranger, a woman named Helen.
- Nora: Markheim's wife. She is a beautiful and loving woman who is devoted to her husband. However, her happiness is shattered when she discovers that Markheim is having an affair with Helen. Nora is heartbroken, but she is also determined to get revenge.

Themes
The Obsession explores a number of dark and disturbing themes, including:
- Love: The novel explores the different types of love, from the passionate and possessive love of Helen to the more mature and forgiving love of Nora. Levin also examines the destructive power of love, and how it can lead to betrayal, violence, and even death.
- Betrayal: The novel is filled with betrayal, both large and small. Markheim betrays Nora by having an affair with Helen, and Helen betrays Markheim by trying to kill him. Levin explores the devastating effects of betrayal, and how it can destroy even the strongest of relationships.
- Revenge: Nora is determined to get revenge on Helen for trying to kill her and her husband. However, her quest for revenge only leads to more violence and bloodshed. Levin explores the dangers of revenge, and how it can consume the person who seeks it.
The Obsession is a powerful and gripping novel that explores the dark side of human nature. The story is filled with love, betrayal, and revenge, and it will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. If you are looking for a novel that will stay with you long after you finish it, then I highly recommend The Obsession.
