The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Burglar
"The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Burglar" by Maurice Leblanc is a collection of stories published in 1907. This debut collection introduces the charming and cunning Arsène Lupin, a master thief who outsmarts police and high society alike. Through nine tales of daring heists, clever disguises, and audacious escapes, Lupin proves himself an unmatched criminal genius. From shipboard robberies to prison breaks, he taunts authorities—including a famous English detective—while stealing priceless treasures with impeccable style and wit.
Keetley (2016) uses the term “plant horror” to describe “humans’dread of the “wildness” of vegetal nature—its untameability, its pointless excess, its uncontrollable growth,” as well as its “inscrutable silence” (Keetley & Tenga, 2016, 1).
