«Extraña mujer» is the novel by Ben Ames Williams, published by Círculo de Lectores in 1973 in hardcover (488 pages, in Spanish).
Jenny Hager seems a virtuous lady, but behind that façade hides a perverse personality. With her beauty she seduces men and then unleashes on them a violent and strange hatred. The tale, a psychological study of realist bent, shows how ambition and the thirst for power mark her actions and those around her.
The novel was originally published as The Strange Woman in 1941; the Spanish translation is by A. Bazán.
A read for those seeking classic psychological fiction and complex female portraits.
