Nella nuova indagine di Montalbano Camilleri inventa storie e personaggi e li fa recitare fra le quinte di un teatro di cui è lui il regista. Una messinscena che è dramma e commedia insieme. I very much enjoyed this late entry in the Montalbano series. Montalbano's colleague, Mimi Augello, is not one of my favorite characters (for many reasons that I could go on about but won't!) but he is great in this one. I also found the developments in Montalbano's personal life interesting! I listened to the digital audiobook (not this CD edition). Een korte blik op het overzicht van de reeks rond commissario Montalbano zegt dat dit de op twee na laatste giallo in de reeks is. En dat is misschien ook wel voelbaar doorheen het boek. Zo komt zijn relatie op Livia, toch een belangrijke rode draad in zijn leven en verhalen, op losse schroeven te staan. Augello, Fazio en de immer lachwekkend sympathieke Catarella zijn dan weer vaste waarden. Het verhaal zelf is niet de meest spannende of doorwrochte plot. Meer aandacht lijkt nu uit te gaan naar de personages en hun innerlijke leven, wat hier ook meer expliciete aandacht krijgt door de methode Catalanotti. Lees het verhaal zelf om te weten te komen wat daarmee precies kan worden bedoeld en geniet van een zoveelste Montalbano. Three crimes/stories, another love affair for the aging Inspector, and lots of sumptuous means (some prepared by his housekeeper, some by Enzo, and some in other restaurants.) The main story concerns the director of an amateur theater, who is stabbed through the heart. He has a highly unorthodox method of casting roles. He also has an illegal, unregulated moneylending business, and a regular female dinner companion so readers and the police are never sure who killed him. There are two lesser stories: one involving detective Mimi Augello, who happens upon a corpse while fleeing the husband of a dalliance, and another involving a young man, shot in the leg, who claims not to have seen his assailant. His love affair, with a consulting forensics, has him re-evaluating his life and long distance relationship with his longtime girlfriend, Livia. Satisfying, but nothing very new in this one. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
"In the new novel in the transporting New York Times bestselling Inspector Montalbano mystery series, Montalbano finds his answers to a murder in a theatrical play. Mimi Augello is visiting his lover when the woman's husband unexpectedly returns to the apartment; he climbs out the window and into the downstairs apartment, but one danger leads to another. In the dark he sees a body lying on the bed. Shortly after, another body is found, and the victim is Carmelo Catalanotti, a director of bourgeois dramas with a harsh reputation for the acting method he developed for his actors. Are the two deaths connected? Catalanotti scrupulously kept notes and comments on all the actors he worked with, as well as strange notebooks full of figures and dates and names. Inspector Montalbano finds all of Catalanotti's dossiers and plays, the notes on the characters, and the notes on his last drama, Dangerous Turn--the theater is where he'll find the answer"-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
