Der Mondstein (Ein Wilkie Collins-Krimi)

Der Mondstein gilt als wegweisendes Werk für die Kriminalliteratur. Der Tagebuch- und Briefroman erzählt die komplexe Geschichte um den Diebstahl und das Wiederauffinden eines indischen Diamanten im England der Kolonialzeit und setzt sich dabei kritisch mit sozialen und politischen Fragen auseinander. Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) war ein britischer Schriftsteller und Verfasser der ersten Mystery Thriller.

The Moonstone

"I'm sick to death of novels with an earnest purpose. I'm sick to death of outbursts of eloquence, and large-minded philanthropy, and graphic descriptions, and unsparing anatomy of the human heart, and all that sort of thing. Good gracious me ! Isn't it the original intention or purpose, or whatever you call it, of a work of fiction, to set out distinctly by telling a story? And how many of these books, I should like to know, do that? Why, so far as telling a story is...

The Moonstone (A Mystery Novel)

The Moonstone is an epistolary novel, generally considered the first detective novel in the English language. Besides creating many of the ground rules of the detective novel, The Moonstone also reflected Collins' enlightened social attitudes in his treatment of the servants in the novel. Rachel Verinder, a young English woman, inherits a large Indian diamond on her eighteenth birthday. It is a legacy from her uncle, a corrupt British army officer who served in India. The diamond is of...

The New Magdalen

The New Magdalen

Though perhaps this story does not equal, from a literary point of view, some of Collins's previous efforts—it being less sensational and less complicated in its plot—it is, nevertheless, one of the best he has ever written. It is an able and eloquent protest against the false state of society and that cruel sentiment which prevents an erring woman ever returning to the path of virtue. Aside from its moral purpose, the story is exceedingly interesting. It should be read thoughtfully by...

The Queen of Hearts

Уилки Коллинз

The Queen of Hearts

Mr. Wilkie Collins can tell a story well, and he has an ingenious knack of stringing stories together. After Dark consisted of a series of stories, and admirable they were, and 'The Queen of Hearts' is a work of the same description. The author lives in the region of fiction; but he does not aim at the higher objects contemplated by the more gifted writers of his class. He does not affect to be profound, philosophical, or didactic. His great object is so to write as to sustain interest...

The Ostler

'The Ostler" was originally published in 1855 as a short story, which later became the foundation for the much longer story 'The Dream Woman.' It is one of Wilkie Collins' first supernatural stories, revolving around the forty-year-old Isaac Scatchard, who has a very strange dream of a young woman – or wasn't it a dream, but a ghost? Seven years later he even gets more lost when he encounters a woman who looks very much like his strange dream creature ….

The Woman in White

HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics.‘The woman who first gives life, light, and form to our shadowy conceptions of beauty, fills a void in our spiritual nature that has remained unknown to us till she appeared.’One of the earliest works of ‘detective’ fiction with a narrative woven together from multiple characters, Wilkie Collins partly based his infamous novel on a real-life eighteenth century case of abduction and wrongful imprisonment. In 1859,...

The Woman in White

This extraordinary work ranks among the foremost purely melodramatic or sensation novels of modern times. Mr. Collins has thrown a force and power into this story, of which the reader has only seen intimations in his former works. After opening the narrative with a cheerful sketch of Professor Pesea, an Italian Refugee, combining in his small person all the pleasant traits of his nation, the author at once begins his work, and in a few sentences throws a weird and mystic glow over the story,...
