THE IMPORTANCE OF FEMALE VOICES IN CRIME FICTION
Presented by the Pinckley Prize for Crime Fiction
From intrepid sleuths to villainesses embracing their “feminine rage,” the feminine shows up in crime fiction in ways that are powerful, shocking, and cathartic. These panelists have reclaimed the mystery genre from hardboiled noir to nail-biting thrillers and infused them with their own unique voices. Maureen Corrigan, the distinguished book critic for Fresh Air and the Washington Post, moderates a discussion with bestselling authors Kristen L. Berry, Margot Douaihy, Cheryl A. Head, and J.M. Redmann, as they talk about feminist aspects of crime writing.
