The books are tight, compact, laser focused on an event that guarantees to blow the assumptions, the positions, even the lives of the characters sky-western crooked. Among the least remembered of his output are his noir-tinged romans durs, or strong novels. Simenon was a really prolific writer - those 75 Maigret novels alone would guarantee that - of books in many genres.
E-readers increase your options, of course, and this is the moment of escape! Start something vacation-y, something new, something really fresh. Mysteries are the traditional beach reads, and with Memorial Day fast approaching, we’re all packing, packing, packing for that first taste of summer somewhere else.īut what about the ride, the flight, the train trip to Paradise? Beach books are already in the suitcase, and are generally too fat to be comfortable short-to-medium travel companions. The series ran for 75 books, after all, and from my experience with it, you can pick up any one of them and go from there, with no loss of understanding. Most really serious mystery readers are familiar with Georges Simenon’s Inspector Maigret.
