Here are seven mystery stories featuring Martin Hewitt, Detective, and narrated (of course) by his (nameless) sidekick. Arthur Morrison certainly has imagination, as shown by the very wide range of situations, motivations, crimes and characters he presents in these stories. Hewitt may be after a Russian spy or a domestic animal; he investigates the burglary of documents vital to national security, but also the destruction of a work of art -- which is counterfeit. (summary by Kirsten Wever)

Many Voices (selection from) by E. NESBIT (1858 - 1924)
Genre(s): Poetry
Read by: in English
Chapters:
00:00:00 - 01 - Selection from: Many Voices
E. Nesbit (Edith Bland) was a prodigious 19th century children's writer who produced over 60 books of fiction for children. This book of poems has many elements which would appeal to children but there's also some exploration of her feelings of love, lust and longing which your average 10 year old would find downright yucky. There are also moments of joy, moments of sugary sweetness and moments of sharp insight in this collection which contains views from many angles. Recurring themes of love, death, gardens and fairies give us a fine insight into the lively imagination of E. Nesbit. (Summary by Jim Mowatt.)

Among his longer works are Christian Leaders of the Eighteenth Century (1869), Expository Thoughts on the Gospels (7 vols, 1856-69), Principles for Churchmen (1884).
