Description
The beloved writer Zuzana Francková has prepared something unusual for her readers again. In her new book Love in the Shadow of the Gallows, she tells in six stories about six women who made their mark in the history of crime. Based on old court records, the author masterfully narrates the stories of her heroines, whose fates were certainly not happy. However, it is not just a black chronicle from long ago. After all, the crimes and the harsh punishment that followed were often the result of desperate life situations. Thus, while reading, we can ask ourselves whether it was really better in the past than it is today. It has probably always been true – depending on who you ask...
