AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Sisters in Crime Australia belatedly celebrated its thirtieth birthday in April with a gala ceremony at the Victorian Pride Centre in Melbourne. One of its founders, Carmel Shute, was an assistant editor of Hecate in the mid-1970s, the early years of its founding in Brisbane. Here she reflects on how the Women in Crime organisation has developed since its launch on 22 September 1991 at the Feminist Book Fortnight in Melbourne and why so many women-both authors and readers-have turned to crime over the past three decades.'
