Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the intersection of translation studies, crime fiction and world literature. National allegories, and the crime novels in which they emerge, foundationally plural texts that promote critical rewriting as opposed to sites for fixing meaning. It was originally published as a special issue of The Translator.
