Decline of the English Murder

by George Orwell - £4.99  Penguin Books Ltd (2009)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780141191263 | ISBN 10: 0141191260

In these timeless and witty essays George Orwell explores the English love of reading about a good murder in the papers (and laments the passing of the heyday of the 'perfect' murder involving class, sex and poisoning), as well as unfolding his trenchant views on everything from boys' weeklies to naughty seaside postcards.
