The Thirty-Nine Steps de John Buchan

The Thirty-Nine Steps: Essential Gothic, SF & Dark Fantasy

Autor John Buchan Introducere de Kate MacDonald
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 aug 2021
Richard Hannay, a restless hero, is set to show the integrity of the ordinary man who stands in defence of his country. Buchan's terrific yarn excelled as a Hitchcock movie of the same name, and inspired all subsequent spy thrillers, including the much later incarnation of Fleming's suave James Bond. The book plays on fears of invasion, and turns the simple view of good versus evil into a page-turning adventure for the ages.
This edition also features the second in Buchan's series of Hannay adventures, Greemantle.

Notă biografică

John Buchan (1875–1940) was Governor General of Canada, biographer of Walter Scott and author of adventure thrillers. Featuring the daring exploits of Richard Hannay in the years during and after the First World War, his novels are still widely read today, especially his masterpiece The Thirty-Nine Steps. He was born in Scotland, educated at Oxford, assisted in the reconstruction of South Africa after the Boer War and led a life of public service, the experience of which is reflected in the detail of many of his novels.
Kate Macdonald (Introduction) is a literary historian and publisher, and has published several books, chapters and articles on the life and work of John Buchan, including John Buchan. A Companion to the Mystery Fiction (2009), Reassessing John Buchan: Beyond the Thirty-Nine Steps (ed. 2009), John Buchan and the Idea of Modernity (ed. with Nathan Waddell, 2013), and Novelists Against Social Change: Conservative Popular Fiction 1920–1960 (2015). She was editor of the John Buchan Journal for eleven years. She lives in Bath.

Descriere

The quintessential man-on-the-run tale starring Richard Hannay as the resourceful engineer, exploiting the complacency of his enemies and using every tool of espionage and charm in the defence of King and country.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

John Buchan wrote The Thirty-Nine Steps while he was seriously ill at the beginning of the First World War. In it he introduces his most famous hero, Richard Hannay, who, despite claiming to be an 'ordinary fellow', is caught up in the dramatic race against a plot to devastate the British war effort.

Recenzii

"Richard Hannay is, like his American brother Philip Marlowe, a modern knight errant. Charging through a hypocritical world, he is a seeker after truth with a boundless love of nature, a liking for simple pleasures and a hatred of pettiness and snobberies... Buchan's novels are eerily resonant with today's troubles...Hannay is a hero of all times."
--Observer

"Buchan makes superb use of wild landscapes in this economical and gripping story."
--The Times
