Requests:  0 Summary:  In every tragic story, men are expected to be the killers. There are countless studies and works of art made about male violence. However, when women are featured in stories about murder, they are rarely portrayed as predators. They're the prey. This common dynamic is one of the reasons that women are so enthralled by female murderers. They do the things that women aren't supposed to do and live the lives that women aren't supposed to want: lives that are impulsive and angry and messy and inconvenient. Maybe we feel bad about loving them, but we eat it up just the same. Residing squarely in the middle of a Venn diagram of feminism and true crime, She Kills Me tells the story of 40 women who murdered out of necessity, fear, revenge, and even for pleasure.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 364.1523 Wr Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.1523 Wr Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.1523 Wr Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.1523 Wr Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.1523 Wr Checked In Add Copy to MyList
