Présentation The Haunted Bookshop Format Broché
- Livre Littérature Générale
Résumé :
Christopher Morley's 1919 book The Haunted Bookshop is currently considered to be American public domain. It continues to be a well-known example of bibliomystery, a mystery novel that is set in the world of books. This thrilling book takes place in Brooklyn near the close of World War I. The narrative of Roger Mifflin, the bookseller from Parnassus on Wheels, is continued. Additionally, it describes Miss Titania Chapman and Aubrey Gilbert, a young advertising executive, on their voyage. The Haunted Bookshop is not a supernatural book. The phrase the ghosts of all great literature alludes to the historical ghosts that stalk every library and bookshop. Several times throughout the book, Morley alludes to the knowledge and wisdom that reading can provide through the persona of Roger Mifflin. Despite Morley's constant exhortations to read, this is largely a suspense tale. The main character, Mifflin, calls himself a practitioner of bibliotherapy and believes that, like doctors, booksellers can treat mental illnesses. A librocubicularist, according to Mifflin, is someone who enjoys reading in bed. Gilbert and Mifflin discover the real plot in the book's final chapter, which goes as follows: The bookshop had been the drop-off location for the German spy who worked as a pharmacist.
Biographie:
Christopher Morley (1890 - 1957) was an American journalist, novelist, essayist and poet. He also produced stage productions for a few years and gave college lectures. Morley began writing while still in college. He edited The Haverfordian and contributed articles to that college publication. He provided scripts for and acted in the college's drama program. In Oxford a volume of his poems, The Eighth Sin (1912), was published. After graduating from Oxford, Morley began his literary career at Doubleday, working as publicist and publisher's reader. In 1917 he got his start as an editor for Ladies' Home Journal (1917-1918), then as a newspaper reporter and newspaper columnist in Philadelphia for the Philadelphia Evening Public Ledger. Morley's first novel, Parnassus on Wheels, appeared in 1917. The protagonist, traveling bookseller Roger Mifflin, appeared again in his second novel, The Haunted Bookshop in 1919. In 1920 Morley returned to New York City to write a column (The Bowling Green) for the New York Evening Post. Author of more than 100 novels, books of essays and volumes of poetry, Morley is probably best known for his 1939 novel Kitty Foyle, which was made into an Academy Award-winning movie. Another well-known work is Thunder on the Left (1925).
