      "One of Simenon's masterpieces." --Adam Gopnik, The New Yorker "A writer as comfortable with reality as with fiction, with passion as with reason." --John Le Carr A man's dismembered body is found in a canal, and only Maigret can uncover the killer When a man's headless body is discovered in Paris's Saint-Martin Canal, Maigret is quick to answer the call. It is in this very neighborhood that he meets a strangely taciturn woman who runs a cafe. Her husband is away on a trip--or so she says. As is often the case, Maigret soon learns that there is more to the story than meets the eye. As shocking as it is incisive, Maigret and the Headless Corpse is a compelling mystery from Georges Simenon. This description may be from another edition of this product.

      The 'perfect' Maigret

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      If you're curious about Simenon's unique style and his great character Maigret, this is the one to start with. More than any of the other 50 Maigrets I've read, this one epitomizes the qualities that make these books so remarkable; Maigret solves crimes, like this one, not so much by the regular procedure of detection, but by trying to understand the circumstances of the crime and the lives of the people involved.
