The D. Case: Or the Truth about the Mystery of Edwin Drood Paperback - 1993
by Charles Dickens; Carlo Fruttero; Franco Lucentini
World-famous sleuths--Lew Archer, Father Brown, Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, and others--deliberate on Charles Dickens' last and never completed novel, The Mystery of Edwin Drood. As each chapter is studied, the mystery grows more mysterious.
Summary
The authors combine the text of The Mystery of Edwin Drood, literary scholarship, the detective genre, and their knowledge of Rome to produce a hilarious, offbeat satire. Translated by Gregory Dowling. A Helen and Kurt Wolff Book
First line
THE RUIN LIES THERE IN THE RAIN, a great fossilized eyesocket staring emptily at nothing, like a long-silenced witness; it is now no more than a traffic-island beset on all sides by raging motor vehicles.
