Book Synopsis Western Crime Fiction Goes East by : Boris Dralyuk
Book excerpt: This volume examines the staggering popularity of early-20th-century Russian detective serials, traditionally maligned as 'Pinkertonovshchina,' and posits the 'red Pinkerton' as a vital 'missing link' between pre- and post-Revolutionary popular literature.
