[2015], Adult, Doubleday Call No: 362.883 K89m Edition: First American edition. Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: "Missoula, Montana, is a typical college town, with a highly regarded state university, bucolic surroundings, a lively social scene, and an excellent football team - the Grizzlies - with a rapid fan base. The Department of Justice investigated 350 sexual assaults reported to the Missoula police between January 2008 and May 2012. Few of these assaults were properly handled by either the university or local authorities. In this, Missoula is also typical. In MISSOULA, Krakauer chronicles the searing experiences of several women in Missoula - the nights when they were raped; their fear and self-doubt in the aftermath; the way they were treated by the police, prosecutors, defense attorneys; the public vilification and private anguish; their bravery in pushing forward and what it cost them. Krakauer's dispassionate, carefully documented account of what these women endured cuts through the abstract ideological debate about campus rape."-- From publisher.
