| Publisher Description: One of the salient features of detective fiction that is prominent in Monsieur Jean Bapteste is the art of disguise. It is the mark of a good detective, and Lecoq is a master of disguise. Bapteste has a passion for detection, but he is preoccupied with professional success, while Tabaret carries out detective work without remuneration for the satisfaction and pleasure it provides him. Dubois's detectives differ from other detectives in their fallibility. Francoix Bonnoit stresses that while they are geniuses of detection, they are not supermen like Dupin or Sherlock Holmes. |
