- A pointed cultural examination and a personal tribute to the twelve young women who’s lives were lost thirty years ago to a murderous rampage by a man who targeted them simply because they were women. - Released in French on the 30th anniversary of the massacre, this fall’s publication of the English book will mark 31 years since the tragedy. - Examines what the murder of these young women means in the larger context of history and feminism. - Josée Boileau was assigned to cover the murders in her first weeks working as a young reporter in Montreal for the French-language paper Le Devoir, for which she would go on to become Editor in Chief. - Includes a Preface written by Catherine Bergeron, the sister of one of the murder victims who has gone on to be an activist against violence against women and a victim’s advocate.
