In our final episode on Jill the Ripper, we examine perhaps one of the more difficult texts, The Michaelmas Girls, to discuss Jill the Ripper’s violence. In this episode, an unofficial detective figure suspects Mary Jane Kelly of participating in the murders. Content note: This novel discusses some deeply upsetting themes about queerness in addition to the already upsetting narrative of the murders. Special thanks to voice actors Jeremy, Dana, and Ross.
