Irish crime fiction, long present on international bestseller
lists, has been knocking on the door of the academy for a decade.
With a wide range of scholars addressing some of the most essential
Irish detective writing, Guilt Rules All confirms that this genre
has arrived. The essays collected here connect their immediate
subjects - contemporary Irish crime writers - to Irish culture,
literature, and history. Anchored in both canonical and emerging
themes, this collection draws on established Irish studies
discussions while emphasizing what is new and distinct about Irish
crime fiction. Guilt Rules All considers best-sellers like Adrian
McKinty and Liz Nugent, as well as other significant writers whose
work may fall outside of traditional notions of Irish literature or
crime fiction. The essays consider a range of themes - among them
globalization, women and violence, and the Troubles - across
settings and time frames, allowing readers to trace the patterns
that play a meaningful role in this developing genre.
