O knihe

Though mysteries and detective stories are among the most popular of books, the writers of genre fiction have suffered from the perception that their work, though entertaining, is to be taken less seriously than so-called literary fiction. The novels of James Lee Burke, one of the most distinguished writers of crime novels, challenge that notion, as do the twelve essays in this collection. They examine Burke as a writer who has expanded the mystery-detective genre with an astonishing diversity of themes, imaginative language and descriptions, and unforgettable characters. Like the best writers in the American tradition, Burke seems unbound by limitations of genre. This volume includes a closing interview with Burke.
