Factory girl or victim of seduction? The Murder of Mary Bean and Other Stories
Feb 6th, 2023
Elizabeth De Wolf, author of The Murder of Mary Bean and Other Stories, speaks to Bangor Daily News about this 19th-century tale of abortion and murder.“’This is a story about women in the workforce, and the price of progress and who should even be in the workforce,’ said University of New England professor Elizabeth De Wolfe, . . . ‘And it’s about women leaving home, out of the watchful eyes of men and it’s about policing women’s behavior.’”—Bangor Daily News
