The interwar period is often described as the 'Golden Age' of
detective fiction, but many other kinds of crime writing, both
factual and fictional, were also widely read during these years.
Crime Writing in Interwar Britain: Fact and Fiction in the Golden
Age considers some of this neglected material in order to provide a
richer and more complex view of how crime and criminality were
understood between the wars. A number of the authors discussed,
including Dorothy L. Sayers, Marie Belloc Lowndes and F. Tennyson
Jesse, wrote about crime in essays, book reviews, newspaper
articles and works of popular criminology, as well as in novels and
short stories. Placing debates about detective fiction in the
context of this largely forgotten but rich and diverse culture of
writing about crime will give a unique new picture of how
criminality and the legal process were considered at this time.
