tailieunhanh - The pseudo–detective in Postmodern literature

Pseudo-detective is one of the main tendencies in postmodern literature. Postmodernists consider that the goal is not as important as the journey we are on. So, postmodern detectives concentrate on the journey. This does not use the structure of the traditional detective story but rather uses a detective to detect a criminal who in the end turns into a detective himself. Umberto Eco, Paul Auster and Orhan Pamuk are masters in this field. |
