Accessible yet comprehensive, this first systematic account of
crime fiction across the globe offers a deep and thoroughly nuanced
understanding of the genre's transnational history. Offering a
lucid account of the major theoretical issues and comparative
perspectives that constitute world crime fiction, this book
introduces readers to the international crime fiction publishing
industry, the translation and circulation of crime fiction,
international crime fiction collections, the role of women in world
crime fiction, and regional forms of crime fiction. It also
illuminates the past and present of crime fiction in various
supranational regions across the world, including East and South
Asia, the Arab World, Sub-Saharan Africa, Europe and Scandinavia,
as well as three spheres defined by a shared language, namely the
Francophone, Lusophone, and Hispanic worlds. Thoroughly-researched
and broad in scope, this book is as valuable for general readers as
for undergraduate and postgraduate students of popular fiction and
world literature.
