Více o produktu ↓
nové vydání klasické anglické četby Valeria Woodville's first act as a married woman is to sign her name in
the marriage register incorrectly, and this slip is followed by the
gradual disclosure of a series of secrets about her husband's earlier
life, each of which leads on to another set of questions and enigmas.
Her discoveries prompt her to defy her husband's authority, to take the
law into into a labyrinthine maze of false clues and deceptive
identities, in which the exploration of the tangled workings of the
mind becomes linked to an investigation into the masquerades of
femininity.
Probably the first full-length novel with a woman detective as its heroine, The Law and the Lady is a fascinating example of Collins's later fiction. First published in 1875, it
employs many of the techniques used in The Moonstone, developing them in bizarre and unexpected ways, and in its Gothic and fantastic elements The Law and the Lady adds a significant dimension to the history of detective fiction.
