Since there was no title/author given, at first I was skeptical if that very creepy book was a published. Indeed it is available on amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Alfies-Home-Richard-Cohen/dp/0963705806
Read about the author here:

JA, what did you like about the woman BT story? It's very typical. And the woman obviously uses religion as an excuse to justify to herself her dislike of her otherwise loving husband. Now that's a case where psychological issues lead someone towards religion.
Jewish Atheist, an interesting humanist blog you might consider adding is "Richard Carrier Blogs" richardcarrier.blogspot.com/
