Georges Simenon bibliography explained

Georges Joseph Christian Simenon (French: [ʒɔʁʒ simnɔ̃]; 12/13 February 1903 – 4 September 1989) was a Belgian writer, most famous for his fictional detective Jules Maigret. He was one of the most popular authors of the 20th century, selling over 500 million copies of his works during his lifetime.[1] Apart from his detective fiction, he achieved critical acclaim for his literary novels which he called romans durs (hard novels). Among his literary admirers were Max Jacob, François Mauriac and André Gide.[2] Gide wrote, “I consider Simenon a great novelist, the greatest perhaps, and the most truly a novelist that we have had in contemporary French literature.”[3]

Simenon's published works include 192 novels written under his own name,[4] over 200 novels written under various pseudonyms, four autobiographies and 21 volumes of memoirs. He also wrote a large quantity of short fiction.

Classification

Simenon's fiction is often classified into his early pseudonymous popular novels, the last of which was written in 1933;[5] his fiction featuring police commissioner Jules Maigret (75 novels and 28 short stories); and his 117 literary novels (romans durs).[6] Simenon's short fiction is usually classified into his Maigret stories and other short fiction. Simenon also wrote travel stories which straddle the boundary between fiction and non-fiction. His non-fiction includes autobiographical writings, travel writing, essays, journalism and published lectures.[7]

The following partial bibliography includes only those works which were first published under Simenon's own name.[8] The works are listed in order of their first French publication in commercial editions. French title and year of first publication is given first, followed by English translations where applicable. The first English translations printed in book form in British and American commercial editions are listed, as are the first editions of subsequent translations, and English translations currently in print where known.

Unless otherwise specified, the sources for the French title and publication date are Bernard Alavoine,[9] Trudee Young,[10] Tout Simenon[11] and Tout Maigret.[12] The sources for the publication details of English translations are Trudee Young,[10] Barry Forshaw,[13] Patrick Marnham,[14] Penguin UK[15] and the individual works cited.
