About the book

The People Opposite by Georges Simenon is a literary novel. An extraordinary tale of betrayal from the celebrated author of the Maigret series.

On the shore of the Black Sea, on the edge of the Soviet Union, a little city has a new Turkish consul. Adil Bey - alone in an alien land - has taken the job after the mysterious death of his predecessor. Receiving only suspicion and hostility, he soon becomes reliant on his secretary, Sonia, for any taste of intimacy. But this is Stalin's world before the war, and nothing is as it seems... Georges Simenon's most starkly political work, The People Opposite is a tour de force of slow-burn tension and existentialist meditation.
