Crime fiction and multiculturalism

Bradford—once a booming textile city, today a testing ground of British multiculturalism. In their crime novels, A.A. Dhand and Saima Mir explore migration, identity, and social conflict within Britain’s Muslim-British-Asian communities—while pushing back against racist and sexist clichés. Historian Moritz Föllmer shows how their crime fiction becomes more than suspense: it is a sharp literary lens on a city shaped by post-industrial change, cultural self-assertion, and fragile coexistence.
