Product details

"American Crime Fiction" by Peter Swirski offers an in-depth analysis of American crime literature as an art form. The author examines how this literature reflects the social and aesthetic values of its creators and readers. Swirski argues that the choices of authors and readers are based on informed literary decisions rather than cultural manipulation or a decline in literary standards. In successive chapters, significant American crime authors such as Dashiell Hammett, John Grisham, and Raymond Chandler are explored, whose careers illuminate the complex interactions between popular and high literary forms. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the development and influence of crime literature in the USA.
