Description: Who are the most important Canadian crime and detective writers? How do they help represent Canada as a nation? How do they distinguish Canada's approach to questions of crime detection and social justice from those of other countries? The Routledge Introduction to Canadian Crime Fiction provides a much - needed investigation into how crime and detection have been are and will be represented within Canada's national literature with an attention to contemporary popular and literary texts. The book draws together a representative set of established Canadian authors who would appear in most courses on Canadian crime and detective fiction while also introducing a few authors less established in the field. Ultimately the book argues that crime fiction is a space of enormously productive hybridity that offers fresh new approaches to considering questions of national identity gender race sexuality and even genre.
