Description
"Benson provides a comprehensive and provocative overview of the intersectionality of the Dahmer case, evidencing the ways in which true crime cannot exist within a vacuum. Infinity Land offers great insights into the ways in which historical and institutional racism and homophobia can be mapped onto growing serial killer cultures." - Charlotte "Charley" Barnes, lecturer in cultural studies at the University of Worcester and author of Deconstructing True Crime Literature
