Book Synopsis
Few other television series have received as much academic, media, and fan celebration as The Wire. The essays in this volume offer a range of astute critical responses to this television phenomenon. More consistently than any other crime show of its generation, The Wire challenges viewers' perceptions of the racialization of urban space and the media conventions that support this.
