Masquerade, Crime and Fiction: Criminal Deceptions: Crime Files

Autor L. Peach
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 sep 2006
This study of crime and masquerade in fiction focuses upon the criminal as a 'performer'. Through stimulating discussions of a wide range of criminal types, Peach argues for the importance of novels that have been neglected. The book integrates incisive literary and cultural criticism with arguments about gender, masquerade, crime and culture.
