The Mahé Circle

Georges Simenon
3.61/5 (372 ratings)
Read Now Download Now
The first English publication of Georges Simenon's compelling novel about summer escape and elusive obsessions.

'In Porquerolles, things were hostile to him. He had tried in vain to tame them. Back there, all the time, he had felt as if there was a tremendous chaos around him, a kind of life that was too vivid, so that the slightest contact with it made his blood pulse more quickly, and prompted a rising fever inside him.'

Nobody could understand why Dr. Mahé continued to drag his family to Porquerolles for the summer. Had he really become obsessed with the girl dressed in red? Or was it a longing to go fishing and play boules with the locals? Or maybe there was something even more powerful that drew him back to the island.
