{"product_id":"arsene-lupin-gentleman-thief-9780143104865","title":"Arsene Lupin, Gentleman-Thief","description":"\u003cb\u003eLeblanc's creation, gentleman thief Ars ne Lupin, is everything you would expect from a French aristocrat--witty, charming, brilliant, sly...and possibly the greatest thief in the world. The inspiration for the new Netflix series, \u003ci\u003eLupin\u003c\/i\u003e, starring Omar Sy\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe poor and innocent have nothing to fear from him; often they profit from his spontaneous generosity. The rich and powerful, and the detective who tries to spoil his fun, however, must beware. They are the target of Lupin's mischief and tomfoolery. A masterful thief turned detective, his plans frequently evolve into elaborate plots, the predecessor to such present day capers as \u003ci\u003eOcean's Eleven\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Sting\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA turn-of-the-century surprise hit when he first appeared in a short story, Lupin was created in response to the popularity of Sherlock Holmes. These stories--the best of the Lupin series--are outrageous, melodramatic, and literate, and they sparkle with amusing banter. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
