*Crime, Spies & Sleaze: The Belgian author Georges Simenon was a very prolific writer. He aspired to be known as a serious writer and produced nearly 400 novels plus short stories, memoirs and autobiographies. His most famous creation, the French detective Jules Maigret, featured in 75 novels and 28 short stories and has become immortalised in international film, TV and radio. This week however, we have six volumes that do NOT feature Maigret, but show Simenon’s range in psychological thrillers and mysteries. All in green Penguins and vintage Pans from the 1950s and 60s, in English translations (natch). Half of them feature two novels in one book. These have varying degrees of wear and tear, as described in our catalogue.
