Crime Fiction: Escapism And Entertainment Or More?
Saturday 26 October 2019 at 10:30AM
Belgrave Library
Event Description
Why are crime readers drawn to read about fear, violence, and death? And what draws writers to the baser sides of society?
Does crime fiction provide vicarious thrills and danger? Does it exploit violence? Or does it provide a powerful tool for understanding crime?
Join three award-winning crime authors, Sandi Wallace, Michelle Somers, and DB Tait as they explore why they choose this genre and why we read it.
