Previous owners name on inside front cover. Light wear. Clean unmarked text. A nice copy of this scarce title. There’s a distinct lack of glamour to this first Maigret mystery.

30523Paris Presses de la Cité novembre 1964. 1 vol. 115 x 170 mm de 185 p. 2 et 1 f. Broché couverture illustrée. . Édition originale. Un des 60 premiers exemplaires n° 29. . Le commissaire Maigret apparaît pour la première fois dans quatre romans populaires que l'auteur signe sous les pseudonymes de Georges Sim ou Christian Brulls. Si ces romans ne figurent pas dans le cycle officiel des « Maigret » c'est parce que Simenon a établi - notamment en 1975 une époque où il occultait farouchement toute oeuvre antérieure à 1931 - une distinction entre son oeuvre illégitime les ouvrages publiés sous des pseudonymes et son oeuvre reconnue les ouvrages publiés sous son patronyme. Le « cycle officiel » comprend 75 romans 4 recueils de nouvelles et 28 nouvelles en revues ; 50 de ces romans paraissent aux Presses de la Cité dont les maquettes connaîtront quatre présentations différentes. A partir de Maigret voyage publié en décembre 1957 la présentation s'uniformise avec un fond de couleur uniforme ou apparaît un profil de l'auteur en ombre chinoise avec chapeau et pipe depuis laquelle prolongée sur le premier plat s'échappent des ronds de fumée contenant le nom de l'auteur et le titre : tous les titres de cette série seront en édition originale numérotée et tirée sur beau papier où tirage de luxe et tirage ordinaire portent le même achevé d'imprimer. Paris, Presses de la Cité, (novembre) 1964. 1 vol. (115 x 170 mm) de 185 p., [2] et 1 f. Broché, couverture illustrée. unknown

The first English edition of this novel originally published in French. Written by Belgian author George Simenon who was best known for his creation of the fictional detective Jules Maigret. 'Escape in Vain' is comprised of two of Simenon's works of detective fiction; 'The Lodger' and 'One Way Out'. 'The Lodger' tells the story of a daring crime committed in Belgium on the Brussels-Paris night train showing a young man convicted of a terrible murder.'One Way Out' is set partly in a small provincial town in France partly in a bustling metropolis. Simenon tells the story of young people caught up in a very dangerous situation demonstrating human emotion and the perils of adolescence. Translated by Stuart Gilbert.
