The emergence of a Cuban socio-cultural phenomenon: el falso policial by Leonardo Padura Fuentes

2013-01-01, Battaglia, Diana Rosa

In this article I will examine contemporary Cuban crime fiction through the various manifestations of its relations to the State. My study is based on the premise that it is possible to establish a link between State traditions and crime genre. Here I am interested in exploring the consequences of this relationship inside the Cuban context, to establish to what extent recent social and economic changes find an echo in crime literature.
