This ground-breaking study argues that literature and criminology
share a common concern to understand modernity and that this
project is often focused upon gender-specific criminality. Central
to this concern is duplicity masquerade and performance. These
subjects are explored for the first time in relation to criminality
with reference to a range of literary and popular texts, from
Dickens and Poe through to Toni Morrison and Easton Ellis, in which
the traditional boundaries between different genders and
sexualities are made more fluid and complex than in traditional
criminal narratives.
