Crime Fiction<br />

Authors..<br />

crime fiction is the genre of fiction which<br />

refers to crimes, the detection of crimes <strong>and</strong><br />

criminals who carry out the crime <strong>and</strong> the<br />

motives of criminals behind committing a<br />

crime. One can say that most of the crime<br />

novels share the same structure, not all of<br />

them but most of them consider the same<br />

pattern. First of all, there is a crime for<br />

instance a murder, then a whole procedure of<br />

investigation of how that criminal act took<br />

place, <strong>and</strong> then finally the concluding part<br />

which is the judgement, mostly novels conclude<br />

it as arrest of the criminal or he/she dies.<br />

The crime fiction revolves around a<br />

criminal act, but the main focus is the<br />

investigation that is done by the main character<br />

of the story such as a professional or amateur<br />

detective. There are less chances of featuring<br />

a court room in a crime fiction, it rather<br />

focuses on mystery <strong>and</strong> suspense.<br />

in the 1850’s <strong>and</strong> 1860’s, street robbery was<br />

its peak <strong>and</strong> was referred as “garroting” back<br />

then. Then comes the murders by Jack The<br />

ripper, which happened in the year 1888 in the<br />

season of autumn. Petty thefts used to take<br />

place on the daily basis, <strong>and</strong> normally the<br />

offenders were young males. The common<br />

type of crime committed by women were<br />

related to prostitution, the crimes reported<br />

against women were mostly being drunk,<br />

vagrancy etc. Domestic violence was hardly<br />

reported or brought in front of the court for<br />

proceedings. As the crimes related to<br />

domestic violence’s were taking place in<br />

private sphere, it was not reported as such<br />

because nobody wanted to put their family<br />

reputation at stake.<br />
