Get ready for a very special session where you’ll meet, discuss, ask your questions to the author Hope Reese!

In the early 1900s, the village of Nagyrév, Hungary, became the centre of a shocking series of poisonings. Led by midwife Zsuzsanna Fazekas, women used arsenic to K*ll abusive husbands, with estimates suggesting up to 300 deaths over two decades.
In The Women Are Not Fine, journalist Hope Reese pieces together archival newspapers, court documents, police records, and the vital work of historians, sociologists, and psychologists, diving deep into the truth behind this extraordinary event.
