Edited sentence: @ Joe Sixsmith series.Hill is also a very fine writer of short stories, and a master of the ghost tale.Hill's mysteries often break with the conventions of the genre, and while fiercely intertextual are also often sharply satirical and genuinely, laugh-out-loud funny--Hill having a true gift for comic metaphor.Particularly given the sharp division between 'literature' and 'genre fiction' that is usually maintained in the UK, even today, Hill's insistence on crime writing as literature is unusual, and the case he has made throughout his career for the aesthetic integrity and literary as well as civil value of crime writing is striking.Reginald Hill (born in 1936 at West Hartlepool in County Durham) is an oustanding contemporary English crime writer, and the winner in 1995 of the Crime Writers' Association Cartier Diamond Dagger for Lifetime Achievement.The novels employ various structural devices, such as presenting parts of the story in non-chronological order, or alternating with sections from a novel supposedly written by Peter's wife, Ellie Pascoe (nee Soper)
