43,95 kr. Un ange gardien nommé Lupin : saura-t-il déjouer le complot contre Mlle Darcieux ?Dans les sombres couloirs du château de Maupertuis, Mlle Jeanne Darcieux, aussi belle que riche, vit dans la peur constante d'une fin prématurée. Heureusement pour elle, le célèbre Arsène Lupin veille sur elle et réussit à contrecarrer plusieurs tentatives de meurtre – qui continuent néanmoins d'arriver.Toujours prêt à voler au secours d'une demoiselle en détresse, surtout lorsqu'elle est aussi séduisante que fortunée, Lupin est déterminé à protéger Jeanne contre toutes les menaces qui pèsent sur elle. Mais parviendra-t-il à découvrir l'origine de ces tentatives avant qu'il ne soit trop tard ?Maurice Leblanc (1864-1941) est l’auteur de nombreux romans policiers, mais il est surtout le père du fameux Arsène Lupin. Né d’une famille de négociant, il fuit en Écosse durant la guerre franco-allemande, puis revient étudier à Rouen. Il fréquente Gustave Flaubert et Guy de Maupassant. C’est lorsqu’il publie en 1905 « L'Arrestation d’Arsène Lupin », sur le modèle de Sherlock Holmes, qu’il connaît un succès retentissant. Il continue sur sa lancée avec « Arsène Lupin contre Herlock Sholmès » qui provoque la colère de Conan Doyle. Il renforce son personnage Arsène Lupin au fil de sa carrière, et aujourd’hui encore, on ne cesse d’apprécier ce gentleman-cambrioleur en livre, en film ou en série.

263,95 kr. Maurice Marie Émile Leblanc (11 December 1864 - 6 November 1941) was a French novelist and writer of short stories, known primarily as the creator of the fictional gentleman thief and detective Arsène Lupin, often described as a French counterpart to Arthur Conan Doyle's creation Sherlock Holmes.The first Arsène Lupin story appeared in a series of short stories that was serialized in the magazine Je sais tout, starting in No. 6, dated 15 July 1905. Clearly created at editorial request, it's possible that Leblanc had also read Octave Mirbeau's Les 21 jours d'un neurasthénique (1901), which features a gentleman thief named Arthur Lebeau, and he had seen Mirbeau's comedy Scrupules (1902), whose main character is a gentleman thief.By 1907, Leblanc had graduated to writing full-length Lupin novels, and the reviews and sales were so good that Leblanc effectively dedicated the rest of his career to working on the Lupin stories. Like Conan Doyle, who often appeared embarrassed or hindered by the success of Sherlock Holmes and seemed to regard his success in the field of crime fiction as a detraction from his more "respectable" literary ambitions, Leblanc also appeared to have resented Lupin's success. Several times he tried to create other characters, such as private eye Jim Barnett, but he eventually merged them with Lupin. He continued to pen Lupin tales well into the 1930s.Leblanc also wrote two notable science fiction novels: Les Trois Yeux (1919), in which a scientist makes televisual contact with three-eyed Venusians, and Le Formidable Evènement (1920), in which an earthquake creates a new landmass between England and France.Leblanc was awarded the Légion d'Honneur for his services to literature, and died in Perpignan in 1941. He was buried in the Montparnasse Cemetery. Georgette Leblanc was his sister. (wikipedia.org)

398,95 kr. Arsene Lupin is back from his tenure in WW1 and under the pseudonym D. Luis Perenna (notice anything about that name?) to solve another tangled mess of mysteries in honor of his sadly deceased friend.As a Lupin book it's one of the ones where you follow him the whole time as opposed to something like "The Hollow Needle" where the thief is more of a force of nature, although a couple of features stand out from the usual Lupin adventure mainly his constant cooperation with police force insistent on solving the case with or without "D. Luis".I felt that it reads better than previous books as well, it might just be that I'm more used to Leblanc's style of writing, the long directed monologues without interruptions, the verbose assertions of what people are doing or feeling, the (obviously) dated language and concepts but the quicker pace of the story serves that style well as well as the constant twists and recontextualization of supposedly solved events.

233,95 kr. "The Hollow Needle: Further Adventures of Arsène Lupin" sees Lupin cross paths with the famous Holmlock in a wonderful story of disguises, love, and of course treasure. This early work by Maurice Leblanc was originally published in 1909 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. Maurice Marie Émile Leblanc was born on 11th November 1864 in Rouen, Normandy, France. He was a novelist and writer of short stories, known primarily as the creator of the fictional gentleman thief and detective, Arsène Lupin. From the start, Leblanc wrote both short crime stories and longer novels - and his lengthier tomes, heavily influenced by writers such as Flaubert and Maupassant, were critically admired, but met with little commercial success. Leblanc was largely considered little more than a writer of short stories for various French periodicals when the first Arsène Lupin story appeared. It was published as a series of stories in the magazine 'Je Sais Trout', starting on 15th July, 1905. Clearly created at editorial request under the influence of, and in reaction to, the wildly successful Sherlock Holmes stories, the roguish and glamorous Lupin was a surprise success and Leblanc's fame and fortune beckoned. In total, Leblanc went on to write twenty-one Lupin novels or collections of short stories. On this success, he later moved to a beautiful country-side retreat in Étreat (in the Haute-Normandie region in north-western France), which today is a museum dedicated to the Arsène Lupin books. He died in Perpignan (the capital of the Pyrénées-Orientales department in southern France) on 6th November 1941, at the age of seventy-six.
