The Golden Age of Murder pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

A real-life detective story, investigating how Agatha Christie and colleagues in a mysterious literary club transformed crime fiction, writing books casting new light on unsolved murders whilst hiding clues to their authors’ darkest secrets.

This is the first book about the Detection Club, the world’s most famous and most mysterious social network of crime writers. Drawing on years of in-depth research, it reveals the astonishing story of how members such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers reinvented detective fiction.

Detective stories from the so-called “Golden Age” between the wars are often dismissed as cosily conventional. Nothing could be further from the truth: some explore forensic pathology and shocking serial murders, others delve into police brutality and miscarriages of justice; occasionally the innocent are hanged, or murderers get away scot-free. Their authors faced up to the Slump and the rise of Hitler during years of economic misery and political upheaval, and wrote books agonising over guilt and innocence, good and evil, and explored whether killing a fellow human being was ever justified. Though the stories included no graphic sex scenes, sexual passions of all kinds seethed just beneath the surface.

Attracting feminists, gay and lesbian writers, Socialists and Marxist sympathisers, the Detection Club authors were young, ambitious and at the cutting edge of popular culture – some had sex lives as bizarre as their mystery plots. Fascinated by real life crimes, they cracked unsolved cases and threw down challenges to Scotland Yard, using their fiction to take revenge on people who hurt them, to conduct covert relationships, and even as an outlet for homicidal fantasy. Their books anticipated not only CSI, Jack Reacher and Gone Girl, but also Lord of the Flies. The Club occupies a unique place in Britain’s cultural history, and its influence on storytelling in fiction, film and television throughout the world continues to this day.

The Golden Age of Murder rewrites the story of crime fiction with unique authority, transforming our understanding of detective stories and the brilliant but tormented men and women who wrote them.

Murder Goes On Forever

評分

絕對是今年到目前為止看的最好的一本書,徹底地、永遠地改變瞭我對黃金時代的認識和理解。 所以問題是我要打六星啊……/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~

評分

生活比小說精彩。已經腦補瞭一部名為 Detection Club 的長篇連載英劇,上演兩次世界大戰之間英國偵探小說作傢之間的愛(guì)恨(quān)情(zhēn)仇(luàn)。畢竟這班人多是怪咖,政治光譜左中右齊全,還有各種淺櫃深櫃、人妻人夫愛好者。就算是相對正常的阿加莎,也自帶失憶失蹤間諜梗。真拍齣來會是比 The Crown 還要好看的群像劇吧。

評分

難以評價,我覺得稱之為黃金時代學也完全沒問題。個人最感興趣的是老爺子爆料的各類八卦,簡直是把黃金時代各位大佬的底褲都給扒光瞭xswl。
