The Intellectual as a Detective: From Leonardo Sciascia to Roberto Saviano (Currents in Comparative Romance Languages & Literatures)
Angelo Castagnino
The Intellectual as a Detective: From Leonardo Sciascia to Roberto Saviano offers a fresh perspective on both Italian crime fiction and the role of the intellectual in Italian society. By analyzing the characterization of men of culture as investigators, this book addresses their social commitment in a period that goes from the Sixties to today. The connection it establishes between fiction and real life makes this book an interesting addition to the debate on crime literature and its social fun
