Synopsis
The Disabled Detective is the first book to explore representations of disability in crime fiction, from the earliest days of the genre to contemporary television drama. Susannah B. Mintz examines detective heroes struggling with blindness, deafness, Aspergers, obsessive compulsive disorder, addiction, war trauma and many other impairments. Examining a wide range of texts, from Arthur Conan Doyles Sherlock Holmes stories and the works of Agatha Christie to contemporary crime writers such as Jeffrey Deaver and television dramas such as Monk, CSI, House and Homicide, the book highlights how often characters with disabilities have been the heroes of crime fiction and how rarely this has been discussed in contemporary criticism.
