Justice and Revenge in Contemporary American Crime Fiction
[electronic resource] /by Stuart Sim. - 1st ed. 2015. - VI, 133 p.online resource.
The detective figure in contemporary American crime fiction increasingly relies on revenge to bring about justice in a society where there has been a sharp decline in moral values. This study demonstrates how the notion of the detective as a moral exemplar or heroic ideal breaks down in the works of writers such as James Ellroy and Sara Paretsky.
