«Pedigree» is the autobiographical novel by Belgian writer Georges Simenon, published by Ediciones B in paperback (772 pages, in Spanish).
Pedigree recreates the author's childhood and adolescence through Roger Mamelin, a protagonist with many traits of Simenon. The work was born after a serious medical diagnosis, as a testimony for his two-year-old son, and André Gide advised Simenon to turn the manuscript into a novel. A personal vision far from Maigret.
Translation by Esteban Riambau. Part of the Narradores de Hoy collection, no. 9.
For readers who want to discover Simenon's most personal side, beyond the famous Inspector Maigret.
Georges Joseph Christian Simenon was a Belgian writer who created the fictional detective Jules Maigret. One of the most prolific and successful authors of the 20th century, he published around 400 novels, 21 volumes of memoirs and many short stories, selling over 500 million copies.
