A Jury of Her Peers

A Jury of Her Peers
By Susan Glaspell

Presented by The Online Stage

A man is found strangled in the bed he shared with his wife while both were sleeping. The authorities come to investigate, but someone else finds the truth of the situation.

This 1917 short story was loosely based on a real-life case of murder in 1900's Iowa and is touted as one of the first truly feminist pieces of literature.
