Ce meurtre non élucidé est resté imprimé dans la mémoire des habitants du village comme une malédiction. Cette fatalité pèsera-t-elle sur les différents personnages du roman ? Car il est à peu près sûr qu'un sombre destin plane sur le Baron Audley et sa très belle épouse. *** Effrayant, machiavélique, ce roman est à classer parmi la littérature à sensation d'Alexandre Dumas, de Wilkie Collins et de Dickens, annonçant les detective novels et les thrillers. ***** Mary Elizabeth Braddon est née en Angleterre en 1837. Le Secret de Lady Audley parut en feuilleton en 1862 et assura à l'auteur gloire et fortune. Elle publiera quelque soixante-dix romans, pour la plupart des crime novels où l'intrigue foisonne de péripéties, de crimes et de quelques autres atrocités. Elle choqua en son temps les ligues de vertu qui l'accusèrent d'avoir créé dans ce texte le plus terrible démon blond de la littérature moderne, et fut accusée de pervertir l'esprit des jeunes générations. Parmi ses admirateurs, on trouve Thomas Hardy, Stevenson et Thackeray. ***.

Libro
Hardcover. Condición: Good. No Jacket. An unusual compendium of five novels, originally published to great acclaim by five different publishers. There is no indication of who put together this leatherbound volume, or when, but the volume seems to not be much newer than the last published work - 1874. There is a tipped in sheet with the titles of the novels contained. "The Burgomaster's Family", published by Scribner Armstrong & Co in 1873 was translated from the Dutch by Sir John Shaw Lefevre. The author's real name was E.C.W. Gobie van Walree and the book is known for its lively description of Dutch life. "Going and Son" published by The American News Company in 1869 by an author known only as "Monk." It is a murder mystery set in Wall Street in the years before the Gilded Age: "I have taken the plot and characters of this narrative from the midst of New York life." "Expiated", published by Osgood & Co in 1873, is described as being by the author of "Six Months Hence" and "Beyond the Veil", books that are elsewhere identified as being by Herman Ludolph Prior. He writes: The present work is, and was intended to be, a tragedy, striking the deep notes of human emotion, human error, and human suffering; and the novel-readers who may honor it with their perusal are kindly requested to accept it as such. The main incident of the story, in fact, although cast in widely different times, was suggested by the "Hippolytus" of Euripedes." "A Daughter of Bohemia" was published by D. Appleton & Co in 1874 and has several lovely full-page engravings. Christian Reid was the pen name of Christine Fisher Tiernan, a prolific writer whose work is noted for "its honest and realistic portrait of life in southern society". "To the Bitter End" was published by Harper & Brothers in 1873 with several lovely illustrations. Braddon wrote 75 novels, the most famous of which was "Lady Audley's Secret." "The Gordian Knot" published by Harper & Brothers in 1868 has only one of the illustrations John Tenniel designed for the novel. Brooks was a prominent literary figure in Victorian London, and was for a time editor of "Punch." The leather is considerably worn along the 3-inch thick spine, as are the corners, but the pages are intact. Each novel has its own copyright page and most have several pages of the publishers' ads. Marbled endpapers.
