Includes The Murders in the Rue Morgue, The Mystery of Marie Rogêt, and The Purloined Letter
Between 1841 and 1844, Edgar Allan Poe invented the genre of detective fiction with three mesmerizing stories of a young French eccentric named C. Auguste Dupin. Introducing to literature the concept of applying reason to solving crime, these tales brought Poe fame and fortune to live on. Years later, Dorothy Sayers would describe “The Murders in the Rue Morgue” as “almost a complete manual of detective theory and practice.” Indeed, Poe’s short mysteries inspired the creation of countless literary sleuths, among them Sherlock Holmes. Today, the Dupin stories still stand out as unique, utterly engrossing page-turners.
This Modern Library edition reproduces the definitive texts of the three tales. It includes an enlightening Introduction by novelist Matthew Pearl and an Appendix, “The Earliest Detectives.”
这个也是关于locked room mystery
评分audiobook 61'
评分三篇整体来说都很平庸。第二篇先是陈列各种猜测,再由Dupin一个一个推翻,实在是太死板了,作案手法其实不错,却是最无趣的一篇。第三篇中Prefect和两人的对话其实让小说生动很多,但到了推理的环节爱伦坡又犯了絮絮叨叨的老毛病。只能当作早期推理小说家对推理小说的探索来读。
评分mon Dieu!
评分英文,不是太懂。只明白了故事梗概,Dupin的推理基本没怎么细看。The Black Cat 也是如此。基本不会重读了吧?
