520 |a This groundbreaking work of feminist theory follows the Alc̀sser murders in Valencia, Spain, in 1992, in which three teenage girls left for a nightclub and never came home. Nerea Barjola revisits the media frenzy surrounding the case to explore our cultural obsession with the harm done to women's bodies, one that endures from Jack the Ripper into the present. The lurid repetition of news reports, talk shows and true crime form a narrative of sexual danger, the places and times where women are warned they'll cross beyond the boundaries of safety, shifting the burden of staying safe onto them. Each rape or murder is not a single, exceptional act of violence but part of a systematic expropriation of women's bodies.
