Used book – The Ordinary Life of a Killer Mother, Sophie Marinopoulos

A Murderous Mother's Ordinary Life is the story of a woman who gives birth alone in her toilet, giving the unborn child no chance of survival. In this book, there is no theory, no concept, no attempt at explanation. The reader is alone with Eva, sharing her intimacy, giving birth with her, becoming Eva. They surprise themselves by understanding her, letting themselves be overwhelmed by their own empathy.

The text excuses nothing, but it seeks to convey that obscure part of life that leads to death.

This literary narrative takes a didactic turn without the reader's knowledge, who will close the book with the strange feeling of knowing Eva and wanting, if not to excuse her, at least to forgive her.
