Description

Women who kill rupture our assumptions about what a woman is.

This book explores different socio-cultural understandings of women who commit, or are accused, of murder.

A wide range of cases are discussed in order to highlight the ways in which such women have been perceived, and how such cases reflect important social and cultural shifts.
