Poison
About This Novel
Many of Simenon's characters were written to death, and very few of them died. Of all the ways of death, poisoning is the one he describes most brilliantly. The tragedy of "Sunday" happened on the beach in Cannes. The hotel owner couldn't bear it and came up with the idea of poisoning his wife with his own specialty dish. In "The Iron Staircase," arsenic is once again a secret weapon. The protagonist suffers from stomachaches and becomes increasingly suspicious that his beloved wife may be repeating her old tricks... In the third novel, Maigret by Any Means, Maigret makes quick decisions and quickly gets to the bottom of things.
