AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Australian crime fiction has long-standing local success, but limited international impact. Peter Temple has gone further both through his innate skills and because he has meshed Australian anti-authoritarianism and landscape-linked writing with interrogative approaches like that of James Ellroy. This occurs in the Jack Irish series, but more powerfully in some of his nonseries novels that lead up to the worldwide successes of The Broken Shore and Truth (Editor's abstract).
