Ganador del British Academy Book Prize in 2022 y finalista del National Book Award in Criticism 2022 Cuatro chilenas que, a lo largo del siglo veinte, cometieron impactantes homicidios protagonizan los casos que la escritora Alia Trabucco Zerán investigó durante años para escribir estos ensayos que trazan un relato inquietante y provocador: el de cómo la sociedad, los medios y el poder reaccionaron frente a estas criminales que rompieron, violentamente, con el lugar doméstico y pasivo que se les tenía reservado. Un libro que, con una prosa concisa y reflexiva, cuestiona radicalmente aquello que hemos asumido como normal. «En un momento en que el feminismo se ha tomado las calles para denunciar las dimensiones epidémicas de la violencia de género, el por qué escribir ahora sobre mujeres asesinas no es una pregunta trivial», se plantea Alia Trabucco Zerán, y la búsqueda de una respuesta es justamente lo que subyace en estas páginas sutiles e inteligentes, en las que las narraciones de los crímenes dialogan con un texto ficcional y, también, con los diarios que la autora llevó mientras investigaba y donde quedan planteados los obstáculos y dilemas a los que se enfrentó al abordar un tema tan incómodo como revelador. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION British Academy Book Prize in 2022 and was a finalist of the National Book Award in Criticism 2022A genre-bending feminist account of the lives and crimes of four women who committed the double transgression of murder, violating not only criminal law but also the invisible laws of gender.
When Women Kill: Four Crimes Retold analyzes four homicides carried out by Chilean women over the course of the twentieth century. Drawing on her training as a lawyer, Alia Trabucco Zerán offers a nuanced close reading of their lives and crimes, foregoing sensationalism in order to dissect how all four were both perpetrators of violent acts and victims of another, more insidious kind of violence. This radical retelling challenges the archetype of the woman murderer and reveals another narrative, one as disturbing and provocative as the transgressions themselves: What makes women lash out against the restraints of gendered domesticity, and how do we--readers, viewers, the media, the art world, the political establishment--treat them when they do?

Comfortable Ergonomic Chair for Long Workdays
Color: Black, Color: Black
I’ve been using this chair for my home office, and it’s been a great addition to my workspace. The seat cushion is thick and comfortable, even after several hours of sitting, and the mesh back keeps good airflow throughout the day. I especially like the adjustable headrest, which provides extra neck support when leaning back during breaks. Assembly was straightforward, the chair feels sturdy, and the wheels roll smoothly on my floor. The all-black design also gives it a professional look that fits well in any office setup. Overall, it’s a comfortable and affordable ergonomic chair that offers excellent value for the price.

Sturdy but uncomfortable
Color: Black
The seat itself is sturdy and easy to put together, I’ve now had the product for 8 months and had no issues wear/tear despite nearly daily use, but… it’s not comfy, at all. The seat cushion has a texture to it that scrapes at my legs if I don’t have an extra pillow on it or am wearing shorts. Additionally, the seat pillow is just kind of hard. It doesn’t give very much at all, so if I sit on it for more than an hour or two at a time my butt starts to get really sore. It works as a budget option, but invest in a good seat pillow if you plan to sit in it for any length of time.

A chair that does the job
Color: Black, Color: Black
I’m really happy with this chair overall. I wanted something comfortable, sturdy, breathable, and spacious enough for long hours at my desk when I work from home, and this chair delivered. I’d easily give this chair five stars because it exceeded my expectations in comfort, quality, and overall value.
Comfort and Support
The mesh back keeps it cool and comfortable during extended use. One of my favorite features is the adjustable lumbar support. You can manually position it exactly where your lower back needs support, and it fits the curve of my back perfectly. It provides great support without feeling too firm or uncomfortable.
Build Quality and Design
The chair itself feels solid and well-built. It doesn’t creak or make noise when shifting around, which makes it feel stable and high-quality. The seat is roomy and comfortable, and the overall design looks clean and modern.
Easy Assembly
It also came with an instruction manual that was extremely simple to follow, and assembly was very easy. I was able to put the chair together by myself in about 20 minutes without any help.
Armrest Functionality
I also like the armrests. They aren’t adjustable by height, but they do flip all the way up, which is surprisingly convenient. You can easily slide the chair under a desk or use it as an armless chair when needed.
Packaging and Presentation
Another thing worth mentioning is the packaging. Everything arrived extremely well-packed. Every individual part of the chair was wrapped securely, including bubble wrap protection for the components. The hardware and accessories were neatly organized, and the chair even came with the necessary tools for assembly in case you don’t own a drill or tool set. The presentation and packaging were excellent and showed real attention to detail.
Overall Impression
Overall, this is a fantastic office chair for the price: comfortable, supportive, sturdy, easy to assemble, and packaged exceptionally well. I’d absolutely recommend it and would confidently give it a five-star rating.

Nice chair
Easy to assemble and looks clean in my home office. The lumbar support is actually helpful, and I like that the arms flip up so I can tuck it under my desk. It’s comfortable for a full workday, though the seat could be a bit softer. Overall, solid value for the price.
