The Murderer

The Murderer

Geoffrey Sainsbury
3.7/5 ( ratings)
THE MURDERER records with stark truth and without mercy the gradual and inevitable spiritual disintegration of a doctor who has murdered his wife and her lover. The quiet life of the small provincial town, the interaction of Dr Kuperus upon it, and the effect it has upon him are exactly described. From the accustomed journey on which he plans his crime to the dreadful waiting in his house while his patients desert him, Simenon has given us a masterly study of the sense of guilt gradually corroding the murderer's personality, for which Simenon makes us feel both horror and pity.
