Description
The knitting circle is comprised of six women who meet every week to talk, eat cake and make fabulous sweaters. Until the night they realise that they've all survived rape and that not one of their assailants has suffered a single consequence. Enough is enough. The knitting circle becomes the Knitting Circle Rapist Annihilation Squad and retribution begins, but not without problems from the sinister group Men Against Women Against Rapists. Written by acclaimed author and leading voice of dissent, Derrick Jensen, this novel is both darkly comic and deadly serious.

Reviews"This novel is both darkly comic and deadly serious, a genre of one where Monty Python meets the SCUM Manifesto. It is a story that never gets told in rape culture: women fighting back. SPOILER ALERT: We win! Read this book and you will never look at knitting needles the same way again." --Lierre Keith, author of The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice, and Sustainability
