Libby Day, the novel’s narrator and protagonist, is the sole survivor of a massacre in the fictional rural town Kinnakee, Kansas. DARK PLACES is a drama/mystery about a poor Kansas City family who were murdered 30 years ago. There were two remaining members of that family; one was a girl (out of 3 girls and 1 boy) named "Libby Day" and the other was her brother, "Ben Day" who is serving a life sentence in prison for the murders. Dark Places demonstrates that was no fluke.” —Val McDermid “ Dark Places' Libby Day may seem unpleasant company at first–she's humoring those with morbid curiosities about her family's murders in order to get money out of them– but her steely nature and sharp tongue are compelling.

Sharp Objects was nasty enough, and Dark Places is just as vile. Luckily for her, I (along with millions of people) like vile now and then. Libby Day is a sole survivor of a horrendous massacre. Consequently, “Dark Places” is a film without a protagonist, akin to watching recreated footage on “Dateline NBC,” as each flashback or revelatory conversation fills in a few more details of the overheated story without giving us a reason to care about it in the first place.

    1 Unlikability and Female Villains in the Works of Gillian Flynn Cannon Elder Lane High Point, North Carolina Bachelor of Arts, English, University of Virginia, 2017 Bachelor of Arts, Spanish, University of Virginia, 2017 A Thesis presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Arts Department of English University of Virginia May 2018 2 Introduction: In recent years, television and popular fiction have begun to feature a new type of female character termed the “unlikable” woman. From popular novels such as Gillian Flynn’s Gone Girl and Paula Hawkins’ The Girl on the Train to TV shows such as Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Fleabag and Lena Dunham’s Girls, popular cultural products in recent years have begun to center on a depiction of women distinct from any before—at least in terminology.1 In each of these works, female writers depict troubled women, from murderers and alcoholics to narcissists, each unwilling to conform to the standards and expectations of representations of women. In each of these works, the authors of these characters refuse to position them as role models, instead focusing on their extreme negative capacity, presenting their story arcs not as ones of redemption or correction, but as ones of continuous development and iteration of personal defect. Against the trend of hailing positive representations of women in fiction, these flawed and profoundly human characters slide the scale in the opposite direction. Instead of proving the equal intelligence, strength, and positive capacity of women, these characters work to accentuate the negative.

  • Dark Places” (2009): a Marxist Feminist Theory
    WOMAN STRUGGLE EXPERIENCED BY PATTY DAY IN GILLIAN FLYNN’S “DARK PLACES” (2009): A MARXIST FEMINIST THEORY Submitted as a Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for getting Bachelor Degree of Education in English Department by: ANDHIKA WAHYU RUSTAMAJI A320150008 DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH EDUCATION SCHOOL OF TEACHER TRAINING AND EDUCATION UNIVERSITAS MUHAMMADIYAH SURAKARTA 2020 i ii iii WOMAN STRUGGLE EXPERIENCED BY PATTY DAY IN GILLIAN FLYNN’S “DARK PLACES” (2009): A MARXIST FEMINIST THEORY Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki jenis-jenis perjuangan perempuan yang dialami oleh Patty Day in Dark Places oleh Gillian Flynn, penggambarannya dalam novel, dan alasan mengapa masalah tersebut digambarkan oleh penulis dalam novelnya. Dalam menganalisis Dark Places, penelitian ini menggunakan teori Marxis-feminis dan teori perjuangan yang disajikan oleh Marsam (2000). Jenis-jenis perjuangan perempuan yang coba ditekankan oleh Gillian Flynn adalah perjuangan dalam ekonomi seperti: kelas sosial, perjuangan kelas, dan akses ke kapasitas finansial. Dengan mengamati latar belakang kehidupan tokoh utama dan hubungan sosial yang memengaruhi tokoh utama dalam melakukan beberapa tindakan perjuangan, dapat disimpulkan bahwa penggambaran perjuangan perempuan dapat dilihat dalam bentuk diskriminasi yang terjadi pada tokoh utama. Dark Places memberikan gambaran yang jelas bahwa perjuangan wanita dalam novel adalah untuk memberi tahu pembaca, terutama pembaca wanita, untuk lebih sadar akan apa yang mungkin mereka alami sebagai istri dan ibu di masa depan. Kata Kunci: perjuangan, diskriminasi, feminisme, teori marxis-feminis, kinnakee Abstract This research aims to investigate the kinds of woman struggle that experienced by Patty Day in Dark Places by Gillian Flynn, its depiction in the novel, and the reason why the issue is depicted by the author in her novel.
