The Papin Sisters - Oxford Studies in Modern European Culture
Edwards, Rachel (, Lecturer in French, University of Newcastle upon Tyne)
This is a study of the 1933 killing by the Papin sisters of their mistress and her daughter. An unexampled act of violence by women against women. The book discusses the idea that the obsessive recurrence of the case makes it a prism through which to examine multiple aspects of French culture.
