description

Summary

Broadside shows a woman with a knife stabbing her elderly father as her dead mother lies in the background. The text conveys the tale of Norberta Reyes, whose parents could not control her. She runs away with a man to return a year and half later in a pitiful state. Her parents take her in and they suggest moving to a different town where the family is not known. On her way there Norberta kills her parents and she, in turn, is attacked by wild dogs and killed.
