Book Synopsis
Offers a reading of German-language crime stories as allegories about 20th- and 21st-century upheavals, raising questions about human behaviour and justice, the horrors of extremism, the changing shape of the nation, and the possibilities of democracy. The study is anchored in the historical contexts of protest cultures and countercultures of the last three decades.
