  • Murder Being Once Done: (A Wexford Case) Free
    FREE MURDER BEING ONCE DONE: (A WEXFORD CASE) PDF Ruth Rendell | 272 pages | 01 Jul 2011 | Cornerstone | 9780099534860 | English | London, United Kingdom "Ruth Rendell Mysteries" Murder Being Once Done: Part One (TV Episode ) - IMDb Look Inside. A young girl is murdered in a cemetery. A compelling story of mysterious identity and untimely death, Murder Being Once Done is Rendell at her most sublime. For the canny, tireless, and unflappable policeman is an unblinking observer of human nature, whose study has taught him that under certain circumstances the most unlikely people are capable of the most appalling crimes. Since that first novel, Ruth Rendell has also demonstrated a keen fascination with the collision between society and the individual, particularly where circumstances drive the individual to behaviour that society Murder Being Once Done: (A Wexford Case) as somehow abnormal. Stable structures have only limited interest; what is gripping is where things start to fall apart, and that is the area where Ruth Rendell excels. Never content with mere description, she illuminates the human condition in a style that is invariably clear and compelling. Although she started with that most classic of English forms, the police procedural, she transformed it both with her psychological insights and her concern with society. She never descends to polemic, yet the picture she has painted of British society since the mid-Sixties is often far from neutral. It is clear that many things she sees make Ruth Rendell angry or despair, but her responses are always tempered through the filter of her characters; she always shows, never tells.

  • A Sleeping Life
    Acclaim for Ruth Rendell “Rendell's clear, shapely prose casts the mesmerizing spell of the confessional.” —The New Yorker “Rendell writes with such elegance and restraint, with such a literate voice and an insightful mind, that she transcends the mystery genre and achieves something almost sublime.” —Los Angeles Times “If there were a craft guild for writers, I'd apprentice myself to Ruth Rendell.” — Sue Grafton “The Wexford books clearly display Rendell's great mastery of storytelling at its best.” —The Sunday Telegraph “No one writes with more devastating accuracy about the world we live and commit sin in today…. She is one of our most important novelists.” —John Mortimer “Ruth Rendell is, unequivocally, the most brilliant mystery novelist of our time. Her stories are a lesson in human nature as capable of the most exotic love as it is of the cruelest murder. She does not avert her gaze and magnificently triumphs in a style that is uniquely hers and mesmerizing.” —Patricia Cornwell “Like Wexford, Rendell's vision of human behavior is intensely moral and often uncompromising. In an age of victimhood, this is as bracing as it is courageous.” —Sunday Times (London) “Ruth Rendell is one of the best crime novelists working today.” —Los Angeles Daily News “Ruth Rendell has written some of the best novels of twentieth century crime fiction.” —Frances Fyfield “Ruth Rendell is surely one of the greatest novelists presently at work in our language. She is a writer whose work should be read by anyone who enjoys either brilliant mystery—or distinguished literature.” — Scott Turow Ruth Rendell A Sleeping Life Ruth Rendell is the author of A Sight for Sore Eyes, Road Rage, The Keys to the Street, Bloodlines, Simisola, and The Crocodile Bird.
