One of Simenon's darkest novels - Le Monde
A foggy winter evening in Dieppe, after the daily ferry arrives from England, a railway worker typically watches the port from his small, isolated hut. When a quarrel on the dock catches his attention, he becomes involved in the scene of a violent crime, and his calm life changes forever. Initially a mere observer, we soon see him fishing a bag from the water and thus entering into a feverish and secret pursuit. As the killer and the witness watch each other, they gain an increasingly deep but silent understanding until the witness becomes an accomplice. Written in 1933, just days after the success of the Inspector Maigret novels, this haunting, atmospheric novel soon became a classic and an inspiration for many film and television adaptations.
