Gumshoe America: Hard-Boiled Crime Fiction and the Rise and Fall of New Deal Liberalism Hardcover - 2000
by Sean McCann
From the rear cover
"The secret history of American crime fiction doubles back to the 1920s and 1930s American left. The noir novelists of Sean McCann's shrewd and disturbing "Gumshoe America "devised a fierce, experimental pop-Modernism, an intransigent anti-popular strain within popular culture. McCann writes passionately, argumentatively, authoritatively, alert to both accomplishment and loss. Probably no prior study of American crime fiction is more entangled in the claims and contradictions of community, race, class, and politics."--Robert Polito, author of "Savage Art: A Biography of Jim Thompson "
