About this product

Product Information

Focuses on the distinctive role that artists have played in detective fiction. With a few significant exceptions, literary detectives have always identified themselves as essentially the deconstructors of the artful crimes of others. The detective does, in the end, produce a work of art: a narrative that explains everything that needs explanation.

"Van Dover easily connects various artists and detectives from different eras while juxtaposing particular cases with artists involved. This, actually, is one of the best features of the book, as recalling hundreds of novels and fictional characters/artists and acknowledging their unique roles is very impressive"-- popcultureshelf.com ., "Van Dover easily connects various artists and detectives from different eras while juxtaposing particular cases with artists involved.
