520    "When Women Kill: Four Crimes Retold analyzes four 
       homicides carried out by Chilean women over the course of 
       the twentieth century. Drawing on her training as a lawyer,
       Alia Trabucco Zerán offers a nuanced close reading of 
       their lives and crimes, foregoing sensationalism in favor 
       of dissecting how all four were perpetrators of grievous 
       violent acts at the same time as being victims of another,
       more insidious kind of violence. This radical retelling 
       challenges the archetype of the woman murderer and reveals
       another narrative, one as disturbing and provocative as 
       the transgressions themselves: what causes women to lash 
       out against the restraints of gendered domesticity, and 
       how do we-readers, viewers, the media, the art world, the 
       political establishment-treat them once they do? Expertly 
       intertwining true crime, critical essay, and research 
       diary, International Booker Prize finalist Alia Trabucco 
       Zerán (The Remainder), in a translation by Sophie Hughes 
       (Hurricane Season), brings an overdue feminist perspective
       to the study of deviant women"--|cProvided by publisher.
