This book discusses Giorgio Scerbanenco’s representation of criminal environments in his Duca Lamberti series (1966-69), focusing in particular on three innovative aspects characterising Italian crime fiction in the 1960s: Scerbanenco’s portrayal of the urban space, violence and gender and its cognitive and emotional impact on the reader.
