Though I haven't yet read all of Simenon's (possibly) one million novels, I can say that November is arguably the best non-Maigret book that he wrote. Simenon was a master of small-scale drama, and this book is no exception. All he gives us is a house, a daughter, mother, father, son and a maid. Of course, it wouldn't be Simenon if both the son and father weren't sleeping with the maid, and everyone else in the house knew it. This, of course, makes for the creepiness. This book is a good 10 on the CreepOmeter. I highly recommend it.
