These topics have been the subject of intense feminist scrutiny and campaigning, and this attention is reflected in contemporary crime fiction and its generic and thematic preoccupation with such topics. Each of the four chapters examining these issues will use the critical vocabulary and concepts from discourses of resistance to present new readings of recently published crime fictions, and to reassess canonical works and authors in order to produce new compelling critiques of gender and genre. Through a focus on actively reading and engaging with crime literature,\u003ci\u003e Crime Fiction in the Age of #MeToo\u003c\/i\u003e will redress this significant gap in knowledge and meet a substantial need in the market for a fourth-wave feminist analysis of crime fiction which draws links between literature and ongoing urgent social and cultural debates.","brand":"NewSouth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45372762620142,"sku":"9781785278556","price":97.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9781785278556.jpg?v=1717235061","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/crime-fiction-in-the-age-of-metoo","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
