À propos de cet audio
This podcast describes Richard Osman's The Thursday Murder Club as a ground-breaking "grey cosy" mystery that revitalises the traditional English village thriller with a unique twist.
The narrative centres on a quartet of elderly residents in a retirement village who, using their combined life experience and varied skills, investigate local murders that confound the police.
The text highlights the novel's blend of witty humour and sharp observations on ageing, visibility, and societal perceptions of the elderly, while also acknowledging the subtle yet impactful exploration of deeper themes beneath its light-hearted surface.
It notes the book's commercial success and its influence on a new sub-genre of crime fiction, offering a refreshing perspective on later life as an adventure rather than an end.
