| Publisher Description: Ars ne Lupin, Gentleman-Burglar was written by Maurice Leblanc. Ars ne Lupin, Gentleman-Burglar is a collection of nine police short stories, written by Maurice Leblanc, which constitute the first adventures of Ars ne Lupin. The first short story in the collection, L'Arrestation d'Ars ne Lupin, was published in July 1905 in the newspaper Je sais tout. It is the first short story featuring Ars ne Lupin. It was a real success and Maurice Leblanc was encouraged to write the rest by his publisher. However, as the author was perplexed about how to continue the adventures of a hero who had just been arrested, the publisher suggested that he escape. The saga of the gentleman burglar is born. Several short stories appear in Je sais tout, at irregular intervals, until 1907, before being grouped together in volume. |
