When Women Kill: Four Crimes Retold by Alia Trabucco Zerán
4.0

A really well executed study on four women who were convicted killers in Chile. Alia's detail and her synopsis of all of the research she has done on the women, of their treatment by their government, by the prison system, by their society--it really paints a picture of injustice and highlights the systemic oppressions and domestic abuse that lead to the killings, only to be further subjugated to public displays of mockery, abuse, torture, and for their stories to be turned into lies and fairytales. If you are looking for a concise true crime case-study, this is the book for you.
