Ngaio Marsh Ordre des livres
23 avril 1895 – 18 février 1982
Ngaio Marsh était une maîtresse conteuse dont les romans policiers sont imprégnés de sa profonde appréciation pour le théâtre et la peinture. Sur une carrière de cinquante ans, elle a créé des mystères complexes, présentant l'inoubliable détective Roderick Alleyn. Les œuvres de Marsh explorent souvent les mondes dramatiques de la scène et de l'atelier d'art, mêlant suspense et observations perspicaces de la nature humaine. Son style distinctif et sa profondeur thématique ont solidifié son héritage en tant que figure de proue de l'âge d'or du roman policier.
