Russian Pulp: The Detektiv and the Russian Way of Crime

by Anthony Olcott (Author)

Synopsis

Once supressed by the Soviet regime, the "Detektiv", Russia's version of the murder mystery has become one of the most popular genres of writing in Russian culture. This study of the genre shows that Russians understand law-breaking and crime, policemen and criminals very differently from the West.
