"Nero Wolfe towers over his rivals. . . . He is an exceptional character creation."--New Yorker What do a Wild West lynching and a respected English nobleman have in common? On the surface, absolutely nothing. But when a young woman hires his services, it becomes Nero Wolfe's job to look deeper and find the connection. A forty-year-old pact, a five-thousand-mile search, and a million-dollar murder are all linked to an international scandal that could rebound on the great detective and his partner, Archie, with fatal abruptness. "It is always a treat to read a Nero Wolfe mystery. The man has entered our folklore."--The New York Times Book Review A grand master of the form, Rex Stout is one of America's greatest mystery writers, and his literary creation Nero Wolfe is one of the greatest fictional detectives of all time. Together, Stout and Wolfe have entertained--and puzzled--millions of mystery fans around the world. Now, with his perambulatory man-about-town, Archie Goodwin, the arrogant, gourmandizing, sedentary sleuth is back in the original seventy-three cases of crime and detection written by the inimitable master himself, Rex Stout.… (mere)

Rex Stout combined the hard-boiled detective of Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler with the intellectual master-detective of the Sherlock Holmes stories and came up with a most winning formula for his long series of Nero Wolfe books. While Wolfe cogitates without leaving his home, his legman Archie Goodwin handles the tough guy stuff, as well as the narration. The Wolfe books are extraordinarily entertaining, and THE RUBBER BAND is one of the best. It deals with the collection of a debt owed a disparate group of people from many years before and the murders that arise when that debt isn't paid. Stout so perfectly combines the elements most loved about the Holmes and the hard-boiled dick stories, and he creates such a richly familiar environment, that the scores of novels he wrote never grow boring or common. And his plotting is so intricate that one wonders how he was able to achieve such intricacy over and over again. But he does, and just about every Wolfe book is a wealth of entertainment. ( )

Very enjoyable mystery with the bonus of Wolfe getting his exercise by playing darts! ( )

I gialli di Nero Wolfe sono leggeri, anzi leggerissimi.
Al bando tormenti interiori, scene d'azione rocambolesche o rompicapo cervellotici: chi si approccia a questa serie lo fa per godersi una lettura brillante e spensierata e per lasciarsi deliziare dalle eccentricità del mastodontico detective e dallo spirito sornione del suo assistente Archie Goodwin.
Questo terzo volume non fa eccezione e vi ritroviamo tutti gli elementi più tipici della saga, da quelli accattivanti di cui ho già parlato fino ai limiti evidenti, perché è ovvio che sull'altare della leggerezza qualcosa deve venir sacrificato: di solito è la trama gialla, che anche in questo caso è piuttosto deboluccia; è più interessante il contorno della portata principale (e trattandosi di Nero Wolfe la metafora culinaria ci sta a pennello).
C'è poco altro da dire anche perché ormai arrivata al quarto romanzo ho capito che sono tutti prodotti in serie, con una formula vincente da cui si distaccano raramente. Non il mio tipo di mystery preferito (di solito apprezzo enigmi più sostanziosi con dei bei colpi di scena) ma indubbiamente piacevole. ( )

Private detective Nero Wolfe takes on two seemingly unrelated cases linked by a beautiful young woman. If Wolfe manages to absolve her of charges of theft, she may end up being charged with murder. Between Wolfe’s brains and his assistant Archie’s leg work, the reader can be sure that the pair will solve both puzzles.

Archie Goodwin’s first-person narration is the key to this series’s enduring appeal. Archie’s sarcastic wit softens the edges of Wolfe’s irritating personality. He’s often irritated by Wolfe’s eccentricities, but his irritation is tempered by respect and even affection for his boss. Readers see Wolfe through Archie’s eyes, and that makes all the difference.
