ICYMI: Clare Clarke's Late Victorian Crime Fiction in the Shadows of Sherlock @victorianclare @Palgrave_

ICYMI: Clare Clarke, Trinity College Dublin, has published Late Victorian Crime Fiction in the Shadows of Sherlock (Palgrave Macmillan, 2014). Here from the publisher's website is a description of the book's contents.

This book investigates the development of crime fiction in the 1880s and 1890s, challenging studies of late-Victorian crime fiction which have given undue prominence to a handful of key figures and have offered an over-simplified analytical framework, thereby overlooking the generic, moral, and formal complexities of the nascent genre.
