Rachel Laskin alias Lizzie Silver.
Über sie ist nicht viel bekannt, nur dass sie „das Opfer“ eines Mannes war, „dessen Frauenhass so immens war, dass er einst eine Frau überfallen, festgehalten, zur Prostitution gezwungen und selbst so oft vergewaltigt hatte, bis sie im Irrenhaus landete“, schreibt van Onselen (S. 279).
Bei seinen Nachforschungen kamen immer schaurigere Details über Silvers Charakter, Leben und Exkursionen ans Tageslicht.
www.gondwana-collection.comOriginally Van Onselen planned to do research on a woman who had died in an institution in Witrand near Johannesburg in 1945 at the age of 69 - Rachel Laskin, also known as Lizzie Silver.
Otherwise not much is known about her, only that she fell victim to a man “whose hatred of women was so immense that once he assaulted a woman, locked her up, forced her into prostitution and raped her until she had to be institutionalised”, van Onselen writes in his book.
His details revealed increasingly horrid details about Silver’s character, life and excursions.
