What kinds of stories win cases, and why? Drawing on trial transcripts and appellate court opinions in civil adultery cases, and on literary examples from Mark Twain, E.D.E.N Southworth, Harriet Beecher Stowe and others, Laura Korobkin sheds new light on the intersections of gender, genre, law and story.
