Ganador del British Academy Book Prize in 2022 y finalista del National Book Award in Criticism 2022 Cuatro chilenas que, a lo largo del siglo veinte, cometieron impactantes homicidios protagonizan los casos que la escritora Alia Trabucco Zerán investigó durante años para escribir estos ensayos que trazan un relato inquietante y provocador: el de cómo la sociedad, los medios y el poder reaccionaron frente a estas criminales que rompieron, violentamente, con el lugar doméstico y pasivo que se les tenía reservado. Un libro que, con una prosa concisa y reflexiva, cuestiona radicalmente aquello que hemos asumido como normal. «En un momento en que el feminismo se ha tomado las calles para denunciar las dimensiones epidémicas de la violencia de género, el por qué escribir ahora sobre mujeres asesinas no es una pregunta trivial», se plantea Alia Trabucco Zerán, y la búsqueda de una respuesta es justamente lo que subyace en estas páginas sutiles e inteligentes, en las que las narraciones de los crímenes dialogan con un texto ficcional y, también, con los diarios que la autora llevó mientras investigaba y donde quedan planteados los obstáculos y dilemas a los que se enfrentó al abordar un tema tan incómodo como revelador. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION British Academy Book Prize in 2022 and was a finalist of the National Book Award in Criticism 2022A genre-bending feminist account of the lives and crimes of four women who committed the double transgression of murder, violating not only criminal law but also the invisible laws of gender.
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 order to dissect how all four were both perpetrators of violent acts and 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 makes women lash out against the restraints of gendered domesticity, and how do we--readers, viewers, the media, the art world, the political establishment--treat them when they do?

Hard to Beat for the Price
Size: 10 Wide, Color: Tan Leather Burnished
I purchased these for a business trip to Italy and wore them daily for the two weeks that I was there, during which I walked extensively. For me, there was a break-in period of a few days; before it loosens up, it will bite your heel, so I recommend wearing bandages or heel pads initially. Following the break-in, it's a very comfortable shoe and has served me well.
I purchased a wide, and for this shoe, I found the width agreeable; in my experience, Cole Haan wide widths tend to be hit or miss (i.e., a wide is sometimes not all that wide). In terms of durability, I would not expect these to remain in good condition for more than a year if you wear them daily. The leather is not of high quality, but it's acceptable for the price. Expect them to crease very quickly if not using shoe trees. That doesn't bother me, but I know some find it objectionable.
All in all, I like them and would buy them again. It's a comfortable alternative to traditional dress shoes for the office and works equally well for casual wear. Most higher quality options cost at least two or three times as much, and many are unavailable in a wide.

My favorite shoes
Size: 14 Wide, Color: White Leather
I’ve probably purchased like 40 pairs of these shoes or more. By far my favorite white sneaker. I have a large foot so the bigger sizes are appreciated. They’re versatile, literally go with anything and they are true to size. At a certain point they start to show wear and you can’t dress them up, but they last as a regular sneaker for a long time afterwards. I try to nab them on sale when they drop to $50-$70, absolute steal at that price point.

Clean Look, Super Comfortable – Instantly a Favorite
Size: 9.5, Color: White Leather
These sneakers are exactly what I was looking for—sleek, minimal, and incredibly comfortable right out of the box. The white leather looks sharp and pairs easily with everything from jeans to chinos, even dressed-down office wear.
What surprised me most was the comfort. The sole is lightweight with just the right amount of cushioning, making them perfect for walking around all day. I’ve worn them on long city days and never felt sore or tired.
They fit true to size (I’m a 9.5 and they’re spot on), and the quality feels premium. If you're after a versatile white sneaker that balances style and comfort, these are 100% worth it.
