Social Crimes
Social Crimes Camilla Nelson Doctor of Creative Arts, 2006 Certificate of Originality and Authorship I certify that the work in this thesis has not previously been submitted for a degree nor has it been submitted as part of requirements for a degree except as fully acknowledged within the text. I also certify that the thesis has been written by me. Any help that I have received in my research work and the preparation of the thesis itself has been acknowledged. In addition, I certify that all information sources and literature used are indicated in the thesis. Signature of Candidate 9 Abstract "Social Crimes" is a thesis comprised of a novel entitled "Crooked" and a critical exegesis on the subject of the social novel entitled "Social Crimes: The Social Novel as Crime Fiction". In the exegesis I argue that the dream of the social novel is primarily a political rather than an aesthetic one, and that, in this sense, social novels must not only address the social in their content and form, but must in some sense be enfranchised as social objects, and circulate as such. I also argue that as avant garde literature has progressively abandoned plot and other forms and conventions commonly associated with popular fiction, mass market, genre, and especially crime fiction, have increasingly come to fill the space once occupied by the social novel, as a genuinely popular form of fiction able to explicate the social transformations and upheavals of contemporary life. In so arguing, the exegesis draws together a range of critical debates taking place inside and outside the academy, including debates over experimental versus conventional narrative, high versus low art, theory versus practice, and most significantly, perhaps, the political relevance of an increasingly marginalised and marginalising literature in consumer capitalist society.

A Question of Blood
Reading Group Guide A QUESTION OF BLOOD An Inspector Rebus Novel by Ian Rankin QQuestionOfBloo_TPtextF1.indduestionOfBloo_TPtextF1.indd 440909 99/8/10/8/10 77:25:14:25:14 AAMM An Introduction to Detective Inspector John Rebus The fi rst novels to feature John Rebus, a fl awed but resolutely humane detective, were not an overnight sensation, and success took time to arrive. But the wait became a period that allowed Ian Rankin to come of age as a crime writer, and to develop Rebus into a thoroughly believable, fl esh-and-blood character straddling both industrial and postindustrial Scotland — a gritty yet perceptive man coping with his own demons. As Rebus struggled to keep his relationship with his daughter, Sammy, alive following his divorce, and to cope with the imprisonment of his brother Michael, while all the time trying to strike a blow for moral- ity against a fearsome array of sinners (some justifi ed and some not), readers began to respond enthusiastically. Fans admired Ian Rankin’s re-creation of a picture-postcard Edinburgh with a vicious tooth-and- claw underbelly just a heartbeat away, his believable but at the same time complex plots, and, best of all, his portrayal Rebus as a confl icted man trying always to solve the unsolvable, and to do the right thing. As the series progressed, Ian Rankin refused to shy away from contentious issues such as corruption in high places, pedophilia, and illegal immigration, combining his unique seal of tight plotting with a bleak realism leavened with brooding humor. In Rebus the reader is presented with a rich and constantly evolv- ing portrait of a complex and troubled man, irrevocably tinged with the sense of being an outsider and, potentially, unable to escape being a “justifi ed sinner” himself.

“Ian Rankin and the Ethics of Crime Fiction“
Eleanor Bell Ian Rankin and the Ethics of Crime Fiction What crime fiction needs is a sense of the incomplete, of life’s messy complexity. The reader should go to crime fiction to learn about the real world, not to retreat from it with comfortable reassurances and assumptionsÉ Good does not always triumph in today’s crime fiction; evil cannot always be rationalised. Sometimes the villains escape justice altogether, and in many cases the reader is invited to take sides with the assassin or criminal against the powers of law and order. There are even novels with no detectives and no mysteries, showing a world in which criminality, especially organised crime, operates openly and without hindrances. (Rankin 1999:12) In his article ‘Why Crime Fiction is Good for You’ Ian Rankin reflects on the ethical imperatives at the heart of crime writing, suggesting that it ought to invoke a self- conscious interrogation of the dark underside of society, inviting the reader to probe beneath everyday appearances in order to better understand the complexities of modern identity and belonging (Rankin 1999:9). By drawing attention to the ethics of crime fiction, Rankin defends the genre against the common criticism that it is a debased form of literature. For Rankin, crime fiction allows access to the deepest recesses of society, to usually restricted areas, spaces the average reader would only want to engage with voyeuristically in print or on screen. ‘Good’ crime fiction therefore encourages an active sociological reading, where the reader becomes an armchair detective of the world around them. Much of Rankin’s fiction engages with Scottish politics and society in this way, most recently presenting an analysis of the unsettling forces at the heart of post- devolution Scotland.
