خطوة إلى عالم لا حدود له من القصص
الخيال العلمي
THE COMPLETE RAFFLES SERIES is a landmark collection that brings together the riveting tales of A.J. Raffles, a gentleman thief par excellence, as conceived by E.W. Hornung and continued in the same vein by John Kendrick Bangs. This anthology presents a panorama of crimes and misdemeanors, unraveling within the decorous bounds of late Victorian and Edwardian society. It showcases a rich diversity of literary stylesfrom the tightly plotted adventures in 'The Amateur Cracksman' to the whimsical and speculative continuations in 'R. Holmes & Co.' The collection stands out for its blend of humor, intrigue, and a nuanced exploration of ethical ambiguity, making it a significant touchstone in the realm of crime fiction and a testament to the versatility of its characters and their enduring appeal. The contributing authors, Hornung and Bangs, come from distinct literary backgrounds yet converge in their fascination with Raffles. Hornung, the brother-in-law to Arthur Conan Doyle, ventures into a shadowy world that serves almost as a mirror to the Holmesian universewhere intellect is wielded for illicit purposes. Bangs, known for his satirical and speculative works, extends this universe by infusing it with a playful irreverence, thereby enriching the canon with an American twist on British criminal charm. Their combined efforts offer a unique exploration of turn-of-the-century attitudes towards crime, heroism, and morality. This anthology is an invitation to delve into the thrilling world of Raffles and his companions, a must-read for aficionados of classic crime literature. It affords readers a multi-faceted view of a bygone era, combined with timeless narratives of cunning and adventure. By traversing the broad spectrum of styles and themes within these pages, one gains not only entertainment but also a deeper appreciation for the art of storytelling as practiced by Hornung and Bangs. This collection is an essential volume for those seeking to immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of criminal adventures and the peculiar charm of Raffles, the gentleman thief whose legacy continues to captivate.
