#MurderEveryMonday Nationality in the title
For today’s #MurderEveryMonday created by Kate Jackson, I decided to share L’Ombre Chinoise translated into Portuguese as The Chinese Shadow. This is number 71 from Colecção Vampiro, a book collection that started in 1949. It was a difficult to find book because it is sought after by different people: those that want to complete the collection, those that want to get George Simenon books (this is an Inspector Maigret), those that are mainly interested in the art covers by the surrealist Cândido Costa Pinto, but also those that collect Alexandre O’Neill works since this title was translated by him.
I do like Simenon’s books and writing. There is a conversation between Simenon and Ian Fleming from 1967 about the writing process, where Simenon says his publisher “has not the right to change a comma—not even to suggest to change a comma” and I think this craftsmanship he puts into the writing, the care he puts into a sentence or a word, shows in the final result. If you want to check the conversation, you can do so here.

„Maigret und der gelbe Hund“ von Georges Simenon
Bayern 2 Radiokrimi
Kommissar Maigret ermittelt: Eine Serie mysteriöser Anschläge auf eine Stammtischrunde erschüttert ein bretonisches Hafenstädtchen. Dass jeder Angriff von dem Auftauchen eines geheimnisvollen gelben Hundes begleitet wird, führt zu Panik und wilden Spekulationen. Das Tier treibt sich meistens in der Nähe der Kellnerin Emma herum. Die beteuert allerdings, den Hund nie zuvor gesehen zu haben. – https://www.br.de/radio/bayern2/programmkalender/sendung-4477072.html

Die gelben Schuhe des Herrn Berthier
ein Hörspiel von Georges Simenon
Der Lagerverwalter Louis Berthier ist mit einem Messer im Rücken tot aufgefunden worden. Kurz zuvor war bei der Mordkommission ein mysteriöser Anruf erfolgt: Berthier bat die Polizei, ihn vor einem Verfolger, der ihm nach dem Leben trachte, zu schützen. Der Kriminalapparat, auf so unmittelbare Weise von dem Verbrechen in Kenntnis gesetzt, läuft sofort auf Hochtouren. Der Ermordete scheint ein Doppelleben geführt zu haben, das die Ermittlungen beträchtlich erschwert. Eine Rolle spielen dabei die auffallenden gelben Schuhe, die Louis Berthier bei seinem Tode trug.

#MurderEveryMonday “the man” or “the woman” in the title
Today’s #MurderEveryMonday theme is “the men” or “the woman” in the title. I went through the Portuguese collection Vampiro to find all the titles. We have more men than women. I’m considering the titles in Portuguese, and when different I will write the original title. Also all the titles in Portuguese have “the man” (o homem) or “the woman” (a mulher) as you can see from the photos, but when translating the Portuguese titles into English we must change the order of the words, so it makes sense.
- The powerful man – Michael Spillane (original title: The Deep)
- The man in the bed number 10 – Mary R. Rinehart (original title: The man in lower 10) – read it and liked it
- The sinister man – Edgar Wallace – read and liked it
- Maigret and the man from the bench – Georges Simenon (Maigret et L’Homme du banc) – favourite cover by the artist Lima de Freitas, not sure if I read this one, but usually like Simenon and recommend
- The shadow man – Dashiell Hammett (original title: The thin man)
- Maigret and the man with two women – Georges Simenon (original title: Liberty Bar)
- Maigret and the solitary men – Georges Simenon (original title: Maigret et L’Homme tout seul)
The man in the brown suit and The man in lower 10 were the first titles I remember could do for today’s hashtag. This book by Agatha Christie is not her usually murder mystery, but it is more on the side of adventure novels and I also like she borrowed from her trip with the British Empire Expedition.
There is less “the woman” in the collection.
- Maigret and the vanished woman – Georges Simenon (original title: Chez les flamands)
- The quiet woman – Harry Carmichael (I have read this author as Hartley Howard and liked it, I’m curious about this one. Real name: Leopold Ognall)
- The phantom woman – William Irish (original title: The phantom lady. Read this one a long time ago and liked it)
- The woman that was not missed – Dorothy Simpson (original title: Dead and gone. Can’t remember if I ever read Simpson, although the name rings a bell).
Back to your covers. If you want to participate in #MurderEveryMonday check Kate’s post here.

La récente disparition de Michel Blanc, m'a fait redécouvrir ce roman de Georges Simenon : Les fiançailles de Monsieur Hire.
Quand on regarde la bibliographie de Simenon, on se rend compte que Maigret n'occupe pas la plus grande place... que du contraire! On s'en convaincra en lisant l'article de Wikipédia :

An autopsy in #Maigret and the Headless Corpse reveals a peculiarly French conception of what does and does not constitute being an alcoholic. Note that this is around lunchtime and Maigret himself seems to be on to his third drink of the day.
