This study examines the crime of femicide in the Latin American context in the novels of Diego Zúñiga (Chile), Laura Restrepo (Colombia), and Fernanda Melchor (Mexico). It reveals how these literary texts shed light on the systematic and intersectional dimensions of femicide and its impunity. Analyses of the novels draw out the ambivalences of juristic frameworks and legal practice.
