Bøker av Alia Trabucco Zerán

Choosing as her subject four iconic homicides perpetrated by Chilean women over the 20th century, Alia Trabucco Zeran details not only the troubling tales of the murders themselves, but the story of how society, the media and men in power reacted to these killings, painting their perpetrators as femmes fatales or hysterics - evil or out of control.

Santiago, Chile. The city is covered in ash, a deceased mother is lost in transit, and three children of ex-militants face a past they can neither remember nor forget. Intense, intelligent, and sensitive to the shape and weight of words, this remarkable debut presents a new way to count the cost of a pain that stretches across generations.
