• When and to what extent do Latinx detective narratives offer audiences a glimpse through “collective
eyes” (or from “collectivized” perspectives)?
• Do representations of power and violence in these genres resonate differently in the hands of Latinx
characters, authors, directors, etc.? If so, why?
• What do we gain and what might we lose when we read Latinx authors as disruptive voices within these
genres?
We are interested in essays on Latinx authors and Latin American authors who write in and on the
boundaries of these genres. We are also interested in essays about detective/noir films, television shows,
graphic novels, and/or video games.
