Book Description

«انتقام!» مجموعةٌ قصصية مثيرة ألَّفَها الكاتب «روبرت بار»، وظهرَت في عام ١٨٩٦م. تتكوَّن المجموعة من ٢٠ قصةً قصيرة تقوم جميعُها على فكرةٍ واحدة، وهي فكرة الانتقام، كما يبدو من عنوانها. تَعرض القصصُ الأشكالَ العديدة والمتنوعة للثأر؛ فنجد مثلًا زوجةً تُلقي بنفسها من أعلى جبلٍ لتتَّهِم زوجها بقتلها، وأخرى تُنهي حياةَ زوجها المحتضَر حتى يَصدر حكمٌ بالإعدام على قاتلِه، ورجلًا يُفجِّر مقهًى بطريقةٍ مبتكرة لقتلِ مالكه الذي أسهَم في إلقاء القبض على رئيس الجماعة السِّرية التي ينتمي إليها، وفتاةً تستغلُّ محاولةَ أحدِ الأمراء للتقرُّب منها لتُلقيَ به من إحدى الشُّرفات لأنه تَسبَّب في غرقِ أختها، وغير ذلك الكثير من أساليبِ الانتقام والثأر. تعكس المجموعةُ روحَ العصر الذي أُلفت فيه، ويَتميَّز أسلوبُها بالبساطة والإمتاع.

Robert Barr

Robert Barr: a famous Scottish-Canadian writer and journalist, born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1849. Most of his literary production was in the field of crime literature, which was popular in his time. With the fame of "Sherlock Holmes" stories at that time, Barr wrote "The Adventures of Sherlo Combs", the first parody of Holmes. He is the author of many well-known story collections, such as: “Revenge!” and “The Successes of Eugene Valmont”, and others. It is said that the character of the famous detective "Eugene Valmont", which was created by Barr, and woven in the pattern of the character of Sherlock Holmes, was the inspiration for the "Christie Agathe" character. Barr died in 1912 of heart disease in Woldingham, England.
