Abstract
This chapter focuses on the iconic war correspondent Marie Colvin, who was killed in a bombardment during the siege of Homs. Bringing together autoethnographic and scholarly modes of analysis, and drawing on the concept of the ‘nasty woman’ (Piotrowska 2019) and a Lacanian reading of Sophocles’ Antigone, the essay challenges normative accounts of Colvin’s life, and interrogates the narratives of transgression that circulate around women war correspondents.
