EVIDENCE OF THINGS SEEN - SARAH WEINMAN KARTONI...

From Sarah Weinman  the award-winning editor of Unspeakable Acts  a groundbreaking new
anthology showcasing the future of the true crime genre True crime  as an entertainment genre 
has always prioritized clear narrative arcs: victims wronged  police detectives in pursuit 
suspects apprehended  justice delivered. But what stories have been ignored? In Evidence of
Things Seen  fourteen of the most innovative crime writers working today cast a light on the
cases that give crucial insight into our society. Wesley Lowery writes about a lynching left
unsolved for decades by an indifferent police force and a family's quest for answers. Justine
van der Leun reports on the thousands of women in prison for defending themselves from abuse.
May Jeong reveals how the Atlanta spa shootings tell a story of America. Edited by acclaimed
writer Sarah Weinman  and with an introduction by attorney and host of the Undisclosed podcast
Rabia Chaudry  this anthology pulls back the curtain on how crime itself is a by-product of
America's systemic harms and inequalities. And in doing so  it reveals how the genre of true
crime can be a catalyst for social change. These works combine brilliant storytelling with
incisive cultural examinations?and challenge each of us to ask what justice should look like.
Evidence of Things Seen introduces the new classics of true crime.
