À propos de ce livre électronique

Une édition de référence du Mystère de la chambre jaune de Gaston Leroux, spécialement conçue pour la lecture sur les supports numériques.

« "Est-ce qu’elle va encore nous empêcher de dormir, cette nuit ?" pensai-je, car il faut que je vous dise, monsieur, que, jusqu’à fin octobre, j’habite dans le grenier du pavillon, au-dessus de la chambre jaune, à seule fin que mademoiselle ne reste pas seule toute la nuit au fond du parc. C’est une idée de mademoiselle de passer la bonne saison dans le pavillon ; elle le trouve sans doute plus gai que le château et, depuis quatre ans qu’il est construit, elle ne manque jamais de s’y installer dès le printemps. Quand revient l’hiver, mademoiselle retourne au château, car dans la chambre jaune, il n’y a point de cheminée. » (Extrait du chapitre 1.)

Auteur

Gaston Leroux

Gaston Leroux (1868-1927) was a French journalist and writer of detective fiction. Born in Paris, Leroux attended school in Normandy before returning to his home city to complete a degree in law. After squandering his inheritance, he began working as a court reporter and theater critic to avoid bankruptcy. As a journalist, Leroux earned a reputation as a leading international correspondent, particularly for his reporting on the 1905 Russian Revolution. In 1907, Leroux switched careers in order to become a professional fiction writer, focusing predominately on novels that could be turned into film scripts. With such novels as The Mystery of the Yellow Room (1908), Leroux established himself as a leading figure in detective fiction, eventually earning himself the title of Chevalier in the Legion of Honor, France’s highest award for merit. The Phantom of the Opera (1910), his most famous work, has been adapted countless times for theater, television, and film, most notably by Andrew Lloyd Webber in his 1986 musical of the same name.

    This is one of the most celebrated classic locked room mystery stories. A young lady, Mlle Stangerson, is assaulted and nearly killed in her locked bedchamber, from which there are no means of escape, but there is no one there when her father and a servant in a neighbouring room break into the bedchamber. The mystery is eventually solved by a very young newspaper reporter Joseph Rouletabille, after numerous convolutions and red herrings. The intellectualisation of the mystery is very clever, though Rouletabille as a character lacks the impact of a Sherlock Holmes or an Hercule Poirot, and I thought the story slightly dragged and became a little absurd in places. I noticed that Stangerson, the victim here, is also the name of one of the murder victims in the first Sherlock Holmes story, A Study in Scarlet, published a few years before this novel. Deservedly a classic of the genre, despite its minor weaknesses. 4/5

    When I was about twelve, someone mentioned that this is the greatest locked room mystery ever written. Since then, I'd kept it in the back of my mind and was excited when I saw that it was in Project Gutenberg. But, in the end, the story is almost anticlimactic and the resolution seems completely artificial. I didn't guess the whodonit, which I often do, so it gets points for that. But, at the same time, it hardly felt like a mystery that anyone would have solved anyway. Perhaps at the time it was written, the audience would have been more accepting than me in 2012.

    I docked half a star for the not quite neat and tidy ending, but otherwise mostly enjoyed this. I liked the young journalist as the central character, competing with the stereotypical detective and their coming to different, competing conclusions. The murderer could have done things more wisely and logically in a few instances, where the author had him do some purposely contorted things in order to make events more mysterious; this device was a bit too transparent. I've an even greater appreciation for Agatha Christie now, who rose head and shoulders above this precedent. Rouletabille is a likeable character, but I don't think we'll be crossing paths again.

    This mystery has an ingenious plot, even if certain elements are slightly implausible. The writing style is rather dry, but the story is very interesting—it reminds me of Poe's Dupin mysteries.

    I expected something a little more from the resolution... not sure what though.

    A smart, cleverly paced, and well-written thriller. I look forward to reading more of Leroux's Rouletabille mysteries after this one.

    I really wanted to like this book, but it seems to drag on and on without any conclusion and I eventually gave up and read the plot on Wikipedia and was glad I didn't finish since the ending seems very far fetched.

    This story holds up remarkably well, at least in part because the narrator is excellent :)

    An interesting look back to the beginnings of the mystery genre. There are a couple of points I'm not convinced really worked - especially if the character Larssen was as prominent and well-known as I thought he was supposed to be. Despite that, I still found the story to be engaging and challenging.

    Ni plus ni moins qu'un Chef-d'œuvre, oui. Un classique, déjà!

    I always find locked-room mysteries highly contrived, but since that's a given for this type of story I always expect it and never let it get in the way of my enjoyment of it. That being said, I found the solution to this one even more convoluted and outside the bounds of reality. It's as if Leroux took a bet that he couldn't devise a plot so dependent on the outlandish and make it work. Maybe all authors who write locked-room mysteries make bets like that. In any case, I had to re-read parts of the explanation because I kept mentally saying "what?". I guess if you allow for some fine acting on the part of the victim and serious observational deficiencies on the part of the rescuers it works, but jeez it's a stretch.
