Luke (korrick) | 2004 comments The Montreal Massacre, Louise Malette and Marie Chalouh, editors, [translated from French by unknown, 1991, Canada, ESSAYS/LETTERS

"The Montreal Massacre is a translation of essays, letters to editors, and poetry about the impact of the December 1989 deaths of fourteen women, all engineering students, murdered by a gun-wielding man out to kill "feminists."...Still others speak of the general reluctance to recognize the shootings as part of a larger framework: "Crimes against women have no history. This history, swept aside, wiped out, has only begun to be written."..."

(S.L., p. 319)
