Pulp literature refers to the mass‑market genre fiction that flourished from the early 20th century through about the 1950s in cheaply produced magazines and paperbacks printed on low‑quality "pulp" paper. It emphasizes fast‑paced, plot‑driven stories—crime and hardboiled detective tales, lurid horror, swashbuckling adventure, noir, westerns, and early science fiction—often with larger‑than‑life characters, sensational premises, and striking cover art designed to grab attention. Pulp is less about literary refinement than entertainment: bold archetypes, cliffhanger serials, snappy dialogue, and formulaic but inventive plotting that catered to a broad, popular audience. Today "pulp" is also used more broadly to describe retro pastiches, gritty genre fiction, and works that deliberately evoke that cheap, kinetic, and sensational spirit.
