How do writers and readers approach crime fiction written by women or featuring female protagonists?
Introduced by Jock Serong, Jack Heath and Marta Dusseldorp discuss the gendered ways of writers, readers and crime fiction book buyers with L.J.M. Owen.
Jock was the inaugural winner of the Staunch Prize for crime fiction that does not depict violence against women, and Jack is a passionate advocate for boys and men to read literature written by women.
Marta has unique insight into the writing, treatment and reception of women onscreen. The portrayal and consumption of crime fiction written by women, featuring a female detectives or female victims, is a topic close the heart of TAF2019 Festival Director, L.J.
