Tatort Germany: the Curious Case of German-language Crime Fiction - Studies in German Literature, Linguistics, and Culture
Lynn M Kutch
New essays by leading scholars examining today's vibrant and innovative German crime fiction, along with its historical background.
Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index. Publisher Marketing: Although George Bernard Shaw quipped that 'the Germans lack talent for two things: revolution and crime novels', there is a long tradition of German crime fiction; it simply hasn't aligned itself with international trends. During the 1920s, German-language writers dispensed with the detective and focused instead on criminals, a trend that did not take hold in other countries until after 1945, by which time Germany had gone on to produce antidetective novels that were similarly ahead of their time. German crime fiction has thus always been a curious case; rather than follow the established rules of the genre, it has always been interested in examining, breaking, and ultimately rewriting those rules. This book assembles leading international scholars to examine today's German crime fiction.
