The Last Maigret,
By frumiousb "frumiousb" (Amsterdam, the Netherlands) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (TOP 500 REVIEWER)
This review is from: Maigret and Monsieur Charles (Hardcover)
Maigret and Monsieur Charles was the last Maigret novel to be written and published (1972). Simenon announced his retirement the following year. In this novel, Maigret explores the world of nightclubs and unhappy marriages. Simenon paints a startlingly clear picture of a bitterly unhappy woman who fails to get what she wants from her marriage. It isn't a sympathetic portrait, precisely, and the lack of sympathy can be troubling. Still, very acute. If the first Maigret books were often more of an exploration of place and culture, this should be seen as an exploration of character. Worthy finisher to the series.
