Buchclub Extra: Inspektor Jury schläft außer Haus von Martha Grimes

Weihnachtsspecial 2014


In diesem Jahr laden wir zusätzlich zu einem Weihnachtsspecial des Buchclubs ein: Inspektor Jury schläft außer Haus (Original: The Man With a Load of Mischief) von Martha Grimes. Gelesen werden kann wie immer wahlweise auf deutsch oder im Original (oder natürlich auch in einer anderen Übersetzung).

Der erste Band der Reihe um Inspektor Jury passt perfekt in die dunkle Jahreszeit - kurz vor Weihnachten geschehen in dem malerisch verschneiten Dorf Long Piddleton zwei Morde, zu deren Aufklärung Inspektor Jury von Scotland Yard in die Provinz beordert wird.

Und je nachdem, wann der geneigte Leser geboren ist, passt dieser Krimi sogar zum allgemeinen Buchclub-Thema "Historischer Roman" im Dezember : Die Handlung spielt irgendwann in der Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts (das Buch ist erstmals 1981 erschienen), im dunklen Zeitalter vor der Erfindung des Handys und bevor Google das Auffinden von Informationen zu einem Kinderspiel gemacht hat, also im finstersten Mittelalter. Sozusagen.

Die Autorin wird, obwohl Amerikanerin, immer mal wieder mit Agatha Christie verglichen, von daher sollten ihre Bücher für all jene geeignet sein, die die traditionelle britische Kriminalliteratur mögen. Leider liegt das Buch nur im englischen Original als Ebook vor, wer auf deutsch lesen möchte, muss sich mit der althergebrachten Totholz-Variante begnügen.

Eine Leseprobe (englisch) gibt es bei Amazon.

Die Leserunde startet am 15. Dezember. Jeder kann mitmachen. Auch Kommentare von Lesern, die das Buch bereits kennen, sind selbstverständlich willkommen.

Ich bin natürlich auch wieder mit dabei und habe mir diese günstige Papiervariante der ersten drei Fälle gekauft.

Ich habe gestern schon mal ins Buch geschaut, wir müssten eigentlich am 19. Dezember beginnen und am 28. das Buch beenden, um es parallel zur Handlung zu lesen.

Es ist altmodisch, es ist britisch, der Hintergrund gefällt, mal sehen, wie der Krimi ist.

Ich werde mich aber zurückhalten und jetzt noch etwas anderes lesen, sonst habe ich es zu schnell durch.

Ich habe inzwischen die ersten drei Kapitel gelesen und muss sagen, dass mir die Atmosphäre ebenfalls gefällt.

Jetzt weiß ich nicht, ob ich bis zum 20. warten soll, um parallel zur Handlung weiterzulesen.

Wobei du uns ja immer locker überholst und dann noch die folgenden Romane liest.

Ja ja, und zum Schluss seid ihr wieder alle fertig, wenn ich erst das halbe Buch gelesen habe, weil mein Rhythmus nun mal ein anderer ist...

Ich habe zwar schon drei Kapitel gelesen, werde aber heute dafür nicht weiterlesen, sondern erst mal zusehen, dass ich diese Woche endlich mit dem Sansom fertig werde (der mir langsam auch besser gefällt).

Ich habe jetzt die ersten 8 Kapitel gelesen.

Es gefällt, könnte aber auch etwas mehr Pep haben, aber vielleicht kommt das noch.

Ich lese sehr langsam weiter, damit ich es etwa am 28. beenden kann.

Ich bin nun beim 23. Dezember angelangt, ich glaube, das ist Kapitel 6 oder 7.

Ich stimme zu, dass bisher ein wenig "Pep" fehlt, die Idee mit der Leiche im Bierfass finde ich indessen ziemlich gelungen.

Die Serie soll sich ja steigern. Im Moment habe ich noch etwas Probleme, mir die vielen Figuren zu merken, von daher weiß ich so ziemlich zum ersten Mal die X-ray-Funktion zu schätzen. Sehr praktisch für ältere Leser mit Löcherhirn.

Bei den vielen Personen finde ich es auch schwierig die Übersicht zu behalten. Ich habe auch schon viel gutes zur Serie gelesen, aber dieser Fall kann mich im Moment jedenfalls nicht so richtig begeistern. Es fällt mir aber auch nicht schwer es weiterzulesen, vielleicht kommt dann im letzten Drittel noch etwas.

Ich habe heute Morgen die 50%-Marke erreicht. Bisher bleibt die stürmische Begeisterung aus, allerdings bin ich neugierig darauf, wie es weitergeht.

Da hier eher Frühlingswetter herrscht, komme ich auch nicht so richtig in die schneegeladene Weihnachtsstimmung hinein. Eigentlich ist es ein schönes, ruhiges Buch für die Feiertage, wenn da nicht diese vielen Leichen wären.

Heute Morgen habe ich dann doch noch den Rest gelesen.

Mir hatte dieser Krimi insgesamt gefallen, wenn auch für mich der Fall nicht so sonderlich spannend war. Ausreichend Personen wurden allerdings umgebracht, so dass ich mich immer fragte, kann nicht diese Tante auch noch...

Jedenfalls waren es die Charaktere, die diesen Fall dann doch interessant gemacht haben, allen voran Melrose Plant und Inspector Jury.

Da ich ja gleich ein Taschenbuch mit den ersten 3 Fällen gekauft habe, werde ich die Reihe weiterverfolgen, aber nicht gleich im Anschluss.

Ich bin heute noch nicht ausgiebig zum Lesen gekommen, habe nur heute Morgen den 25. Dezember beendet. Den Kriminalfall finde ich eigentlich auch nicht wirklich "prickelnd", aber das Drumherum hat etwas.

Bis jetzt habe ich keine Ahnung, wer der Mörder sein könnte oder warum die armen Einwohner von Long Piddleton fast täglich über eine Leiche stolpern.

Ja, irgendwie waren es zum Schluss doch ein paar Leichen zu viel, würde ich sagen.

Ja, und deshalb werde ich auch weiterlesen, allerdings nicht sofort. Es warten noch zu viele andere Bücher...

Und wenn ich es recht verstanden habe, dann hat Melrose Plant im nächsten Buch einen Hund. Gut, solange der nicht ermittelt ... Es soll ja Autoren geben, die Katzen als Ermittler einsetzen...
