Arsene Lupin, Gentleman Thief
Regular price
€28.50
In 1907, Author Maurice Leblanc released the first collection of stories
recounting the adventures of Arsene Lupin, a charming thief and master of
disguises. The character became quite popular, featured in 17 novels and 39
novellas, inspiring generations of charming anti-heroes to follow. This brand
new edition of the first Arsene Lupin novel is beautifully illustrated by artist
Vincent Mallie, capturing the joyful style of an animated feature as if created
by renowned director Hayao Miyazaki (whose first directorial release was LUPIN
THE 3rd: The Castle of Cagliostro, which is filled with nods to Leblanc's
classic character).
Collecting the first 9 novellas, this illustrated edition features dozens of black-and-white and full-color illustrations and plates including numerous two-page spreads that evoke the beauty and charm of a Studio Ghibli production.
