    Contemporary American Crime Fiction Crime Files Series General Editor: Clive Bloom Since its invention in the nineteenth century, detective fiction has never been more popular. In novels, short stories, films, radio, television and now in computer games, private detectives and psychopaths, prim poisoners and overworked cops, tommy gun gangsters and cocaine criminals are the very stuff of modern imagination, and their creators one mainstay of popular consciousness. Crime Files is a ground-breaking series offering scholars, students and discerning readers a comprehensive set of guides to the world of crime and detective fiction.

  • At the Beginning of the Twenty-First Century, Crime Fiction Is a Top- Ranking Literary Genre, and Has Become Part of Mainstream Culture
    NATIONALITY INTERNATIONAL:DETECTIVE FICTION IN THE LATE TWENTIETH CENTURY EVA ERDMANN At the beginning of the twenty-first century, crime fiction is a top- ranking literary genre, and has become part of mainstream culture. The crime novel’s position of pre-eminence derives from its broad fan base and its readership, with publishing houses devoting whole series and large print runs to the genre.1 Evidence of the prevalence of a popular obsession with crime stories is also to be found in the sophis- ticated typological variety of crime fiction, present in literature and in film. Readers who favour novels with female detectives are not neces- sarily enamoured of ethno-detective novels, while hard-boiled thrillers differ significantly from fantasy detective fiction. Among the television shows starring detectives, every variety of the genre is represented. In recent decades we have also seen crime fiction gain in popularity in the spheres of literary experiment2 and literary theory.3 1 Examples include DuMont’s and Rowohlt’s crime series on the German book market, the gialli in Italy and Gallimard’s folio policier in France. 2 Recent novels whose narrative model is based on that of the detective story include: Georg Klein, Barbar Rosa: Eine Detektivgeschichte (Berlin: Alexander Fest, 2001); Thomas Hettche, Der Fall Arbogast (Cologne: DuMont, 2001); Haruki Murakami, A Wild Sheep Chase (Tokyo: Kodansha International, 1989 – originally published as Hitsuji wo meguru Bohken, 1982); and Paul Auster, Levia- than (New York: Faber and Faber, 1992). 3 The frequently repeated schema of the thriller plot seduces the reader into abstract reflections on trails of suspicion, victims or suspicion itself.
