Considered a great example of investigative fiction,Mia per sempre[Mine Forever]which denounces violence against women,encourages them to speak out,seek assistance,and refuse to flee in terror,has been hailed as outstanding work to denounce violence against women.The book is a study of women’s unusual relationships,which are marked by intense love,envious friendships,and unbreakable ties that result in mental instability,irrational behavior,or uncontrollable behavior.Tani’s work has also received recognition for including the knowledgeable perspectives of various specialists who offer a deeper and priceless understanding of these catastrophes occurring individuals’home.This study examines those instances of fear-sharing in relation to women’s independence and ability to move on or start new lives.The main question is how and why Tani’s employs fear.Who are the women or circumstances that cause fear?This paper considers the theoretical discourse on fear developed by scholars of the emotions such as,among others,Jaimal Yogis and Olsson and Phelps in order to examine the circumstances and outcomes of fear fashioned by Tani in her representation of Italian men’s criminal reaction to women’s autonomy.
