The rise in production of the genre can be explained by an urgency to explore issues of morality in societies which incorporate varying levels of censorship and corruption. Through a focus on the concept of the crime scene itself, this book identifies and interrogates some of the principal developments in contemporary Latin American crime fiction. In ten chapters which cover Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Mexico and Venezuela, and generic diversity which spans police procedurals, narcoliteratura, postmodern detection, and historical portrayals of crimes, the authors investigate how the crime scene - which has always been central to the genre and its subgenres - critiques local and global issues, including social injustice, discrimination, neoliberalism, violence, identity, corruption, and memory"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Crime scenes in Latin America's novela negra (1960s-2010s) / Charlotte Lange and Ailsa Peate -- Avenging assassins : women and power in Rosario Tijeras (1999) by Jorge Franco and La reina del sur (2002) by Arturo PeÌrez Reverte / Pascale Baker -- What happens in Clipperton? : criminality and trauma in Isla de pasioÌn (1989) by Laura Restrepo and Isla de Bobos (2007) by Ana GarciÌa Bergua / Niamh Thornton -- That's funny : Mexican crime fiction according to Jorge IbarguÌengoitia / Charlotte Lange -- Collective culpability in Costa Rica : the case of Quince Duncan's Kimbo / Elizabeth Harvey-Kattou -- Cracking up : interpreting the crime scene(s) in Claudia PinÌeiro's Las grietas de Jara / Fiona Mackintosh -- Map-maker most foul : Rodolfo Walsh's "Cartas" and the geography of crime / David Conlon -- Roberto Ampuero and The Neruda case : the detective, the poet, the "converso" / Philip Swanson -- Havana noir : space and memory in Leonardo Padura's Mario Conde detective series / Diana Battaglia -- Disturbing scenes in Amir Valle's detective series El descenso a los infiernos / Ailsa Peate -- Scenes from the most violent city in the world : Caracas muerde and Muerte en el Guaire / Katie Brown. 648 7 $a 1900-2099 $2 fast 650 0 $a Detective and mystery stories, Spanish American $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Spanish American fiction $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Spanish American fiction $y 21st century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Criminal investigation in literature. 650 7 $a Spanish American fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01128187 650 7 $a Detective and mystery stories, Spanish American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00891571 650 7 $a Criminal investigation in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00883225 650 7 $a Detective and mystery stories, Latin American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00891549 650 7 $a Latin American fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00993026 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 700 1 $a Lange, Charlotte, $e editor. 700 1 $a IbarguÌengoitia, Jorge, $d 1928-1983, $e contributor, $5 IaU. 700 1 $a Ampuero, Roberto, $d 1953- $e contributor, $5 IaU. 700 1 $a Peate, Ailsa, $d 1988- $e editor. 856 41 $u https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/qut/detail.action?docID=5837368 $z ProQuest Ebook Central 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240417025350.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A6989A5EFC8011EE9ABF7B513DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
