Biographies, bibliographies and critical works 1939 - 2007
Compiled by Hans-Bernhard "Bernd" Fischer [1948-2008], Köln
Note: The following survey covers
publications in book-form on Simenon´s life and work in French, English,
German, Dutch, Italian and Spanish language (single articles in magazines or
newspapers are not included).
There are also sections with Simenon´s reports (reportages) and
autobiographical writings and a selection
of magazine issues devoted to Simenon.
The covers in the fourth column are not to scale.
I´m aware, that this work-in-progress is incomplete and not without faults.
