Филлис Дороти Джеймс — библиография

I wasn’t in any particular hurry to kill him. What was important was to make sure that the deed was done without suspicion settling on me… Follow P D James, ‘Queen of Crime’, as she takes us into the mind of a man who has waited decades to enact his patient, ingenious revenge on a school bully. A small, dark, treat, ‘The Part-Time Job’ is published in this special edition – for the first time in book form – in celebration of what would have been P.D. James’ 100th birthday.

On the whole, it was easier than I had expected. Only once did I feel myself at risk. That was when the Inspector suddenly intervened. He said in a harsh voice: “He married your wife, didn’t he? Took her away from you some people might say. Nice piece of goods, too, by the look of her. Didn’t you feel any grievance?”
I had been expecting this question. I knew exactly what I would say.
The late, great P. D. James takes us inside the mind of a murderer.
Bringing together past, present and future in our ninetieth year, Faber Stories is a celebratory compendium of collectable work.

Neli lugu ?helt meie ajastu suurimalt krimikirjanikult: kiire tempoga ja riuklikud m?rvam?steeriumid, mis pakuvad, autori enda s?nu kasutades, ?heskoos suurep?rast meelelahutust.
Populaarne krimikirjanik kirjeldab kuritegu, millega ta ise viisk?mmend aastat tagasi kokku puutus. Pedantse, auv??rse ja teiste suhtes hukkam?istva ametniku salajane armastus pornograafia vastu pole ainus p?hjus, miks ta endast kui m?rvatunnistajast m?rku ei anna. Dalglieshi ristiisa palub tal uuesti alustada kurikuulsa m?rvaloo uurimist, kuna loodab, et nii saab ta s?da oma p?randi osas rahu, kuid tegelikult tuleb selle k?igus p?evavalgele t?de, mida isegi erakordselt ?iglane ja seaduskuulekas Adam Dalgliesh avaldada ei soovi. V?rskelt ametisse astunud seersant Dalgliesh leiab end lahendamas l?bi ja l?hki Agatha Christie stiilis juhtumit.
K?ik need neli l?hilugu on ?htaegu m?ngulised ja geniaalse s?žeega; koos kirjaniku firmam?rgiks saanud elegantse jutustamisstiiliga ja teravmeelse pilguheiduga inimloomuse k?ige keerulisematele, et mitte ?elda h?vitavamatele omadustele, on siin esindatud ka kirjaniku ulakas huumorimeel. T?eline maiuspala paljudele P. D. Jamesi f?nnidele ja k?igile teistele, kes meisterlikust m?rvaloost m?nu tunnevad.
