George R.R. Martin: Why sexual violence against women is part of Game of Thrones
http://www.ew.com/article/2015/06/03...iolence-women?
"I'm writing about war, which what almost all epic fantasy is about," he says. "But if you're going to write about war, and you just want to include all the cool battles and heroes killing a lot of orcs and things like that and you don't portray (sexual violence), then there's something fundamentally dishonest about that. Rape, unfortunately, is still a part of war today." |
