  • Classics of Detective Fiction: from the 1960S to Today This Series Will
    Classics of Detective Fiction II Lecturer: Stefani Nielson Classics of Detective Fiction: From the 1960s to Today This series will consider trends and innovations in detective-suspense fiction since the 1960s. Including works by the esteemed Ross Macdonald, the superstar Ian Rankin and the brash Sara Paretsky among others, the series will focus on the steady growth of "niche" genres within detective-suspense fiction since the close of WWII. A key theme will be how these new forms of detective-suspense fiction speak to the changing times. Storytelling forms we'll examine include post-Chandler American noir, Scandinavian noir, post-Golden Age British historical mystery, the humorous Canadian cozy mystery, and the 21st century female detective story. Questions we'll ask include: has the hard-boiled detective disappeared? can a whodunnit be "serious" literature? what is the gothic detective novel? whatever happened to Sherlock Holmes? does geography matter, eh? what's funny about crime? what's a nice girl like you doing in a crime like this? how does the past affect today? Join us as we discuss the conventions and transformations that keep us reading this intriguing genre. Each week we'll examine one author and a work of fiction, considering how that work expresses its author's unique voice, relates to its own time and yet remains relevant to readers today. Suggested reading schedule: Please note participants are not obligated to do any readings. All readings are available through the public library. Week Author Reading Category 1

  • Ginger Gold Mysteries
    Ginger Gold Mysteries MYSTERY WRITER LEE STRAUSS STEPS BACK IN CRIME Brown Books Author Introduces Ginger Gold Mysteries, a New Cozy Historical Mystery Series DALLAS, TX—Brown Books Publishing Group is proud to announce the publication of Lee Strauss’ cozy historical mystery series, Ginger Gold Mysteries. Books one through four will release in March 2018, followed by book five in April and book six in June. Strauss’ first venture into the cozy historical mystery genre delivers a charming array of murders, suspects, and potential suitors. Strauss transports readers to an almost magical decade bookmarked between two major wars. Post-WWI was a time of letting go of pre-war social restraints, and for the youth it was a time to seize the day. The war made everyone aware of how short life could be. By living large and embracing the outrageous, this generation of youth meant to forget the horrors of when the bombs fell. The Ginger Gold Mysteries series paints a beautiful yet thought-provoking image of the Roaring Twenties, with its lavish descriptions of the fashion along with discussions of the social norms of the time. During the 1920s there was more money and more social freedom, especially for women, than ever before. It was the age of revolution, from electronics to social constructs. Main characters Ginger Gold and Haley Higgins push these boundaries, as their feisty spirits and sense of adventure help them to rise above some of the limitations bestowed upon women of their time. By combining history and fashion, Strauss creates a fun and lively series that entertains both historians and fashionistas alike.

  • An Historical Mystery 1
    AN HISTORICAL MYSTERY 1 AN HISTORICAL MYSTERY (The Gondreville Mystery) by HONORE DE BALZAC Translated By Katharine Prescott Wormeley by HONORE DE BALZAC 2 DEDICATION To Monsieur de Margone. In grateful remembrance, from his guest at the Chateau de Sache. De Balzac. AN HISTORICAL MYSTERY PART I CHAPTER I 3 CHAPTER I JUDAS The autumn of the year 1803 was one of the finest in the early part of that period of the present century which we now call "Empire." Rain had refreshed the earth during the month of October, so that the trees were still green and leafy in November. The French people were beginning to put faith in a secret understanding between the skies and Bonaparte, then declared Consul for life,--a belief in which that man owes part of his prestige; strange to say, on the day the sun failed him, in 1812, his luck ceased! About four in the afternoon on the fifteenth of November, 1803, the sun was casting what looked like scarlet dust upon the venerable tops of four rows of elms in a long baronial avenue, and sparkling on the sand and grassy places of an immense /rond-point/, such as we often see in the country where land is cheap enough to be sacrificed to ornament. The air was so pure, the atmosphere so tempered that a family was sitting out of doors as if it were summer. A man dressed in a hunting-jacket of green drilling with green buttons, and breeches of the same stuff, and wearing shoes with thin soles and gaiters to the knee, was cleaning a gun with the minute care a skilful huntsman gives to the work in his leisure hours.
