Abstract 520    $aIn Eudora Welty's puzzle-texts, she habitually engages with familiar genres and then delights readers with her transformations and nonfulfilment of conventions. This book reveals how often that play is with mystery, crime, and detective fiction genres, forms often condescended to in literary studies, but beloved by Welty throughout her lifetime.
