Lamb to the Slaughter - a Detective Story

Zusatztext

Essay from the year 2005 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2.0, University of Potsdam, language: English, abstract: Dahl touches the taboo theme of commiting a murder here which is not typical for a short story. It occurred to me that the story better fits into the genre of crime fiction. In the following I will discuss whether this is true or not, whether Roald Dahls Lamb to the slaughter carries the main features of that genre or not.
