Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
The classic and chilling Jack the Ripper story
The book tells the story of Mr and Mrs. Bunting, owners of a failing lodging in London, who see in Mr. Sleuth, their only guest in a long time, their chance to salvage their business. As new murders happen in the surrounding neighbourhoods, the couple slowly begin to suspect their lodger might be the one responsible for them.
The story is based on the Whitechapel murders of 1888, committed by Jack the Ripper. The Lodger is the first known novelization based on the story. It has been considered an example of how to write a psychological suspense due to its focus on the effects the serial killer has on the main cast of characters, instead of on the murders themselves. The novel was adapted multiple times to the cinema and radio, including Alfred Hitchcock's first thriller film, The Lodger: A Story of the London Fog.

Notă biografică
Marie Adelaide Elizabeth Rayner Lowndes, nee Belloc (5 August 1868 - 14 November 1947), was a prolific English novelist. Active from 1898 until her death, she had a literary reputation for combining exciting incident with psychological interest. Her most famous novel, The Lodger (1913), based on the Jack the Ripper murders of 1888, has been adapted for the screen five different times; the first movie version was Alfred Hitchcock's silent film The Lodger: A Story of the London Fog (1927), followed by Maurice Elvey's in 1932, John Brahm's in 1944, Man in the Attic in 1953, and David Ondaatje's in 2009. Another novel of hers, Letty Lynton (1931), was the basis for the 1932 motion picture of the same name starring Joan Crawford. Born in Marylebone, London and raised in La Celle-Saint-Cloud, France, and was interred in France, in La Celle-Saint-Cloud near Versailles, where she spent her youth.
