Summary:	Crime fiction is one of the most widespread of all literary genres. What's more, crime fiction is a part of our literary heritage and is intertwined with the development of today's consumer society. Part of Bloomsbury major new series Literatures as World Literature, this is the first book to treat crime fiction in its full global and plurilingual dimensions, taking the genre seriously as a participant in the international sphere of world literature. In a wide-ranging panorama of the genre, 21 critics discuss crime fiction from Bulgaria, China, Israel, Mexico, Scandinavia, Kenya, Catalonia, and Tibet, among other locales. By bringing crime fiction into the sphere of world literature, Crime Fiction as World Literature gives new insights not only into the genre itself but also into the transnational flow of literature in the globalized mediascape of contemporary popular culture.
