Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The Female Detective was published in 1864 and it introduces the first professional female detective in British fiction, Mrs Gladden. Typical of detective fiction of its time, Forrester's book features various cases narrated by Gladden, whose deductive methods and energetic approach anticipate those of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes. Mrs Gladden uses similar methods to her male counterparts - she enters scenes of crime incognito, tracking down killers while trying to conceal her own tracks and her identity from others. She does much physical detective work, examining scenes of crime, looking for clues and employing all manner of skill, subterfuge, observation and charm to achieve her ends. Like Holmes, Gladden regards the regular constabulary with disdain. For all the intrigue and interest of the stories, little is ever revealed about Mrs Gladden herself, and her personal circumstances remain a mystery throughout. But it is her ability to apply her considerable energy and intelligence to solve crimes that is her greatest appeal, and the reappearance of the original lady detective will be welcomed by fans of crime fiction. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Encuadernación de tapa dura. Zustand: Nuevo. La primera detective Publicado por SIRUELA, 2022 ISBN 10: 8419207535ISBN 13: 9788419207531 TAPA DURA 23 CM 308 PAG Nuevo. Llega Miss Gladden, la primera detective profesional en la historia de la literatura. Una lectura imprescindible para descubrir los orígenes del género policiaco. A lo largo de las siete narraciones de este volumen, conoceremos a la fascinante y decidida Miss Gladden, una mujer fuerte, misteriosa sus circunstancias personales e incluso su nombre real nunca llegan a revelarse y con unas habilidades para la lógica y la deducción que anticipan las del mismísimo Sherlock Holmes, con quien comparte además el desdén por la policía convencional y sus métodos. Ya sea para solventar casos de asesinato, de robo o de fraude, busca pistas concienzudamente, se introduce de incógnito en las escenas del crimen y rastrea a los sospechosos a la vez que se encarga de borrar bien sus propias huellas y de identificarse como detective solo cuando la ocasión de veras lo requiere. Publicada originalmente en 1864, cuando todavía no había mujeres policía en Gran Bretaña y no las habría hasta cincuenta años después, Andrew Forrester abrió una necesaria y fructífera vía al otorgar el protagonismo de su obra a la primera detective profesional en la historia de la literatura. Y al igual que el crimen y el engaño no han dejado de florecer desde entonces, tampoco lo han hecho la intuición y el ingenio que tan disfrutablemente nos ofrecen estas páginas. «Ya sea inspirada en hechos reales o completamente ficticia, está claro que la misteriosa Miss Gladden es ante todo una pionera, la primera detective». Mike Ashley «Este libro de Andrew Forrester puede enorgullecerse por ser el comienzo de la rica e ininterrumpida tradición de la mujer detective en la historia de la literatura criminal». Alexander McCall Smith.
