Reviews
On Oct 14 2010, ElectricEel said:
A detailed biography of Simenon which does make some attempt at neutrality, but Bresler's apology for Simenon's anti-semitism is comical. I'm also unenthusiastic about Bresler's reaction to Simenon's attitude towards women, or more precisely, to his lack of a reaction. Bresler makes some worthwhile critical comments.
