"Le crime d'Orcival" par Emile Gaboriau. Emile Gaboriau etait un ecrivain francais, considere comme le pere du roman policier (1832-1873)."

Il est toujours bon de consulter les hommes speciaux. Aussi, avant de livrer ce volume a mon imprimeur, j'ai cru devoir soumettre le manuscrit a un de mes amis, sous-chef dans une de nos administrations publiques. Huit jours apres, il me retournait mon livre avec le billet suivant: Je ne sais en verite, mon cher, ou vous avez puise vos renseignements. Vos personnages n'ont pas la moindre vraisemblance."

There is not in all Paris a house better kept or more inviting-looking than No. 23 in Grange Street. As soon as you enter, you are struck by a minute, extreme neatness, which reminds you of Holland, and almost sets you a-laughing. The neighbors might use the brass plate on the door as a mirror to shave in; the stone floor is polished till it shines; and the woodwork of the staircase is varnished to perfection. In the entrance-hall a number of notices, written in the peculiar style which owners of houses affect, request the tenants to respect the property of others, without regard to the high price they pay for their share. "Clean your feet, if you please," they say to all who come in or go out. "No spitting allowed on the stairs." "Dogs are not allowed in the house." Nevertheless, this admirably-kept house "enjoyed" but a sorry reputation in the neighborhood. Was it worse than other houses, -No. 21, for instance, or No. 25? Probably not; but there is a fate for houses as well as for men. The first story was occupied by the families of two independent gentlemen, whose simplicity of mind was only equalled by that of their mode of life. A collector, who occasionally acted as broker, lived in the second story, and had his offices there. The third story was rented to a very rich man, a baron as people said, who only appeared there at long intervals, preferring, according to his own account, to live on his estates near Saintonge. The whole fourth story was occupied by a man familiarly known as Papa Ravinet, although he was barely fifty years old. He dealt in second-hand merchandise, furniture, curiosities, and toilet articles; and his rooms were filled to overflowing with a medley collection of things which he was in the habit of buying at auctions. The fifth story, finally, was cut up in numerous small rooms and closets, which were occupied by poor families or clerks, who, almost without exception, disappeared early in the morning, and returned only as late as possible at night.

IT WAS A THURSDAY EVENING, THE FIFTEENTH OF OCTOBER; AND ALTHOUGH ONLY HALF-PAST SIX O'CLOCK, IT HAD BEEN DARK FOR SOME TIME ALREADY. THE WEATHER WAS COLD, AND THE SKY WAS AS BLACK AS INK, WHILE THE WIND BLEW TEMPESTUOUSLY, AND THE RAIN FELL IN TORRENTS. THE SERVANTS AT THE HOTEL DE CHALUSSE, ONE OF THE MOST MAGNIFICENT MANSIONS IN THE RUE DE COURCELLES IN PARIS, WERE ASSEMBLED IN THE PORTER'S LODGE, A LITTLE BUILDING COMPRISING A COUPLE OF ROOMS STANDING ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE GREAT GATEWAY. HERE, AS IN ALL LARGE MANSIONS, THE "CONCIERGE" OR PORTER, M. BOURIGEAU, WAS A PERSON OF IMMENSE IMPORTANCE, ALWAYS ABLE AND DISPOSED TO MAKE ANY ONE WHO WAS INCLINED TO DOUBT HIS AUTHORITY, FEEL IT IN CRUEL FASHION. AS COULD BE EASILY SEEN, HE HELD ALL THE OTHER SERVANTS IN HIS POWER. HE COULD LET THEM ABSENT THEMSELVES WITHOUT LEAVE, IF HE CHOSE, AND CONCEAL ALL RETURNS LATE AT NIGHT AFTER THE CLOSING OF PUBLIC BALLS AND WINE-SHOPS. THUS, IT IS NEEDLESS TO SAY THAT M. BOURIGEAU AND HIS WIFE WERE TREATED BY THEIR FELLOW-SERVANTS WITH THE MOST SERVILE ADULATION.

Nadie sabe qué habría hecho el juez con el expediente 113, de no ser por la habilidad del inspector Lecoq y su capacidad de disfrazarse, De la caja fuerte del banquero Fauvel habían desaparecido 350.000 francos: sólo Fauvel y el cajero Prosper conocían la combinación de aquella caja concebida a prueba de ladrones; solo ellos tenían una llave. Pero un leve rasguño en la puerta desata la imaginación de Lecoq, que descubre un turbio pasado de amor y odio, chantaje y asesinato.

Ce roman historique a pour thème la révolution. Ecrit en 1870, alors que les Prussiens sont sous les murs de Paris et moins d'un siècle après par un homme ayant connu des acteurs et des témoins des événements, dont l'environnement n'était pas encore totalement étranger à celui de l'époque, il a le mérite de restituer naturellement l'ordinaire de jours fiévreux et les événements de l'année 1792. Solidement étayé, vivant c'est un livre patriotique qui répond au besoin d'une époque noire. Ce n'est pas une oeuvre d'une grande valeur littéraire, l'excès de patriotisme nuit considérablement à l'esthétique.

Inspiré d'une histoire vraie... Considéré comme le père du roman policier français, Émile Gaboriau s´inspire, comme il le fera dans d´autres récits, d´un fait divers dramatique qui défraya la chronique en 1865. Il y relate ainsi la trépidante enquête menée autour de l´assassinat de Célestine Lerouge, sauvagement égorgée dans le quartier de la place d´Italie, à Paris. L´intérêt de l´oeuvre présentée dans cette édition est double. D´une part, il s´agit d´un roman novateur pour son époque, au point qu´il influencera notamment Arthur Conan Doyle et son célèbre Sherlock Holmes. D´une autre, il est aussi question d´une histoire savamment racontée au sein de laquelle l´auteur fait preuve d´un sens aiguisé de l´observation comparable sur le plan méthodologique à celui que l´on retrouve chez les journalistes de terrains ou chez les ethnologues, les moindres détails de l´enquête étant dévoilés avec minutie. Par ailleurs, si le lecteur éprouvera sans nul doute un grand plaisir à lire cette histoire formidablement écrite, il y notera qu´il y est question, comme dans toutes grandes oeuvres littéraires, de porter un regard critique sur son temps, en dénonçant par exemple les travers d´une justice qui reste, cent cinquante années après la première publication des pages qui suivent, largement perfectible.
