Through production analysis, close textual reading, and feminist media theory, Janet McCabe's book examines how characters such as Saga Norén become both radical feminist figures and internationally marketable television icons.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExploring questions of gendered space, justice, adaptation, and cultural exchange, McCabe argues that Nordic noir has played a crucial role in shaping global television femininities in the twenty-first century. Combining industrial and textual analysis, the book advances a new transcultural feminist framework for television studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eJanet McCabe\u003c\/b\u003e is Reader in Television and Film Studies at Birkbeck, University of London, and Managing Editor of \u003ci\u003eCritical Studies in Television\u003c\/i\u003e.
