Stieg Larsson's darkly violent but irresistibly absorbing and
wildly popular crime novels have brought new attention to the work
of Nordic crime writers, and "Scandinavian Crime Fiction" is the
first English-language study of the genre as practiced in Denmark,
Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden. Attending to the work of such
popular authors as Henning Mankell, Karin Fossum, and Anne Holt--as
well as Larsson--"Scandinavian Crime Fiction"explores every aspect
of crime writing in the region, from history to recurrent themes to
the ways these books have been adapted for television. Many readers
will be familiar with Mankell's "Wallander" series and movies based
on Staalesen novels, which are both popular on PBS.
