A Case of Parricide in the 19th Century
Moi, Pierre Rivière, ayant égorgé ma mère, ma soeur et mon frère
Michel Foucault (editor) Frank Jellinek
簡介
To free his father and himself from his mother's tyranny, Pierre Rivière decided to kill her. On June 3,1835, he went inside his small Normandy house with a pruning hook and cut to death his mother, his eighteen-year-old sister, and his seven-year-old brother. Then, in jail, he wrote a memoir to justify the whole gruesome tale.
