A New Generation Can Now Appreciate Maigret

Penguin is re-publishing the seventy-five Maigret novels of Belgian author Georges Simenon with new translations and cover art. This will be the first time that the Maigret novels are published in the UK under a single publisher. The prolific Simenon wrote a novel a month, and Penguin is releasing a new Maigret novel each month. The first novel Pietr the Latvian was released in November 2013, followed by The Late Monsieur Gallet in December 2013, and The Hanged Man of Saint-Pholien in January 2014.

As a fan of the Maigret novels, I wrote an earlier post for this blog on Georges Simenon. If you're interested in reading it, please visit https://www.goodreads.com/author_blog....

This is a great time to (re) discover one of the greatest fictional detectives of all times.
