GRANDS ÉCRIVAINS (1984) - Charles DICKENS Contes de Noël

World-famous sleuths--Lew Archer, Father Brown, Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, and others--deliberate on Charles Dickens' last and never completed novel, The Mystery of Edwin Drood. As each chapter is studied, the mystery grows more mysterious.

Lorsqu'en 1850 il publie David Copperfield Charles Dickens offre à ses lecteurs le premier roman qu'il ait écrit à la première personne, et derrière l'histoire de son jeune héros, c'est aussi parfois la sienne qu'on peut lire. Mais ce que dessinent surtout les douloureuses premières années, le dur apprentissage de la vie dans une fabrique, puis la fuite et l'errance picaresque du jeune Copperfield, c'est un roman de formation où le personnage se fait son propre biographe. Il arrive alors qu'on ne sache pas si le réel évoqué est celui que l'enfant vécut au présent ou celui que l'adulte revisite au passé. Car, d'épreuve en épreuve, c'est une nouvelle image de soi que le narrateur peu à peu reconstruit, avant de devenir lui-même à la fin du livre un écrivain semblable à celui qui, dès le début, a pris la plume pour raconter sa vie - et nous offrir ce qui est encore aujourd'hui le plus grand roman anglais du XIXe siècle. Cette édition du texte intégral, dans la traduction établie sous la direction de P. Lorain et revue par Laurent Bury et Jean-Pierre Naugrette, comprend également : une préface de Jean-Pierre Naugrette, des notes de Laurent Bury, une chronologie, une bibliographie.

Un vieux misanthrope meurt après avoir fait fortune dans l'exploitation des décharges de Londres. L'héritage doit revenir à son fils, John Harmon, parti pour l'étranger quelques années auparavant. Mais voilà que l'on retrouve ses papiers d'identité sur un corps repêché dans la Tamise. La fortune échoit aux Boffin, fidèles domestiques du vieil avare, bientôt entourés d'une foule de charognards. Un jeune homme se présente alors, proposant de devenir leur secrétaire particulier.
