Seminar paper from the year 2002 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3 (A), http: //www.uni-jena.de/, course: Seminar, language: English, abstract: This paper is concerned with the detective novel 'F' is for Fugitive (1989) written by the American author Sue Grafton. The novel will be discussed with regard to typical features of the detective story. Therefore the first part of the paper deals with rather general elements such as the structure and the narrative features used in the novel. In the second part of the paper the emphasis is put on the characterization of the female detective Kinsey Millhone, who is the central character of the book. Her character will be looked at from different perspectives. Thus her engagement in her job, her relation to other people, her outer appearance and her way of living will be analysed. Furthermore, it will be commented on the question whether she embodies a female variation of the American hard-boiled type of detective of the 1920s and 1930s.
