  • Many Readers Have “Go-To” Authors, Writers They Turn to When No One Else Grabs Their Attention
    SUMMER READING GUIDE 2018 Many readers have “go-to” authors, writers they turn to when no one else grabs their attention. This summer we’d like to help you find a “go-to” writer of your own. Below is a list of authors who have many titles to their credit. Some have written a series with recurring characters; some have written books with similar themes; some have written exclusively within one genre (mystery, fantasy, and so on); and some have just produced lots of good, lively writing over the years. In addition, we have included some individual titles, recommended by students, by faculty, and by the library staff. THE HEADMASTER’S CHOICE THIS YEAR IS BEARTOWN BY FREDRIK BACKMAN, WHICH BEGINS LIKE THIS: “It’s a Friday in early March in Beartown and nothing has happened yet. Everyone is waiting. Tomorrow, the Beartown Ice Hockey Club’s junior team is playing in the semi-final of the biggest youth tournament in the country. How important can something like that be? In most places, not so important, of course. But Beartown isn’t most places.” Backman’s novel explores the hopes that a small community pins on a group of teenaged athletes, and it explores the secrets that can tear a small town apart. Backman’s characters—coaches, athletes, parents, and local fans—are often flawed, often heroic, and always fully human. In addition to Beartown, you are to read two other books from the list below. You may choose two books by the same author, or two books by different authors.

  • Crime Fiction: a Global Phenomenon
    IAFOR Journal of Literature & Librarianship Volume 5 – Issue 1 – Autumn 2016 Crime Fiction: A Global Phenomenon Bill Phillips Universitat de Barcelona, Spain Abstract Crime fiction, if you choose to classify it in its broadest sense, has a very long history. Detectives can be found in ancient texts from around the world. One of the things these texts reveal is a common global desire for justice to be done, and to be seen to be done. Often serving as political and/or religious propaganda, they provide assurance that the authorities are protecting their people from wrongdoers and injustice. Edgar Allen Poe’s short story “The Murders in the Rue Morgue”, published in 1841, is often held to be the first detective story, and Poe’s cerebral hero, Auguste Dupin, provided the model for later literary sleuths such as Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot, all three of whom collaborate on a regular basis with the police. Ironically, however, Poe’s model represents a significant change in direction with regard to earlier crime/detective fiction. No longer concerned with justice, or a just society, Dupin, Holmes and Poirot are concerned solely with the solving of a puzzle to the satisfaction of their own egos. Rarely, if ever, are the social causes behind the crimes they investigate revealed. While it is true the stories are comforting in their conservatism, change is resolutely avoided. By the nineteen-seventies, detective writers began to deconstruct the traditional English golden age and American hard-boiled crime genre and were returning it to its former concerns. Around the world crime writers are now using the genre as a means to explore themes such as discrimination, corruption, inequality, poverty and injustice.

Careless in Red by Elizabeth George (March 8, 2012) Scotland Yard's Thomas Lynley discovers the body of a young man who appears to have fallen to his death.

El protagonista és normalment un policia o detectiu que, mitjançant l’observació, l’anàlisi i el raonament deductiu, aconsegueix descobrir com, on, per què es va produir el crim i, sobretot, qui el va perpetrar. Està generalment acceptat que el gènere policial va néixer com a tal amb Edgar Allan Poe i el seu primer de- tectiu de ficció Auguste Dupin, que va servir de model a Arthur Conan Doyle per crear a Sherlock Holmes. Amb el pas dels anys el gènere ha anat evolucionant cap a formes narratives més complexes, la resolució del miste- ri plantejat com un joc de lògica va deixar de ser l’objectiu principal de l’obra, quedant en primer lloc la de- núncia social i un intent per comprendre els conflictes de l’ànima humana. Així va néixer el subgènere de la novel·la policíaca que avui coneixem amb el nom de novel·la negra. La novel·la negra va néixer als Estats Units, de la mà d’autors com Raymond Chandler i Dashiel Hammet.
