John Buchan, 1o Barão Tweedsmuir (1875 – 1940), foi um escritor e político escocês unionista que serviu como Governador-geral do Canadá e que se tornou famoso graças ao seu romance The Thirty-Nine Steps. Os 39 Degraus, foi publicada por Buchan em 1915 e adaptada para o cinema por Alfred Hitchcock duas décadas depois, tendo obtido grande sucesso tanto entre os leitores como nas telas de cinema. No romance, o escritor escocês narra a história de Richard Hannay que durante suas férias em Londres, decide resolver um caso misterioso contado a ele por uma mulher que conheceu na cidade e que, pouco depois, seria assassinada. Além de ter sido escolhido por Hitchcock para ser levado às telas, o romance Os 39 Degraus, não por acaso, faz parte da famosa coletânea: 1001 livros para ler antes de Morrer.

No centenário de sua publicação, a Editora Landmark lança um dos mais eletrizantes thrillers de ação e espionagem do século XX. Richard Hannay, engenheiro de minas sul-africano e herói da guerra, vê-se involuntariamente envolvido numa complicada história em que os incidentes desafiam as probabilidades e se desenrolam ao longo dos limites do possível. A história se passa em Londres e acompanha as desventuras de Richard Hannay tenta espantar o tédio levando uma vida de playboy, até conhecer um vizinho misterioso com uma informação bombástica: haverá um assassinato político na cidade capaz de jogar toda a Europa em um conflito sem precedentes. Essa informação muda o rumo da vida do personagem principal e quando um homem aparece morto em sua sala de visitas, Hannay se engaja no combate às forças hostis, na verdade uma organização alemã terrorista, mergulhando-o em uma aventura repleta de pistas falsas, vilões traiçoeiros e reviravoltas. O febril thriller, publicado em 1915, trocou o estilo descritivo e cerebral das histórias de Sherlock Holmes pela narrativa enxuta e ágil que iria influenciar as tramas de suspense do cinema e os livros protagonizados pelo mais famoso agente secreto, James Bond. O romance é tão ágil e cheio de reviravoltas que foi adaptado pelo mestre do suspense Alfred Hitchcock em 1935, sendo considerado como um dos melhores filmes de ação de seu período inglês e um dos quatro melhores filmes do século XX pelo British Film Institute. Os elementos existentes na obra de John Buchan seriam largamente explorados por Hitchcock como as reviravoltas na trama e a necessidade de um homem inocente tendo que fugir para preservar sua vida, elementos também vistos em vários outros de seus filmes, como Intriga Internacional.

The 39 Steps By JOHN BUCHAN An effortless adventure classic spanning the void between dime shocker and quality literature, John Buchan's "The 39 Steps" still satisfies after many reads. Richard Hannay returned to England, after making his fortune in South Africa, is unwillingly ensnared in a tortured plot to assassinate Karolides the Greek premier and so plunge Europe into war. Scudder, an American journalist turned spy has coded information relating to the plot but is murdered in Hannay's luxurious flat before he can pass on the code. Hannay, with all fingers pointing to him as the murderer escapes by Scottish express and with Scudder's coded notebook .Decamping from the train in the Sottish lowlands ( the Forth Bridge escape from the train was created with the 1935 Hitchcock film adaptation ) he is pursued across hill and dale by the police and the enemy agents intent on seizeing the notebook. In his flight he holes up in a remote wayside inn with a literary inn keeper, who can quote Kipling. It is here that he masters the code and learns Scudder's secrets. From then on it's a race to get to London and notify the authorities. One of the brilliant scenes on the way, concerns Hannay posing as road mender to evade his pursuers. To do this, Hannay explains how you must become one with the environment you're using as a cover; one of Buchans's favourite ploys and one employed in many of his novels. Hannay exchanges pursued for pursuer and tracks the agents to their escape channel and ultimately the title of the book is explained. Every reading of this splendid and timeless novel reveals further delights that may have been missed before and even well remembered scenes take on a fresh vividness and charm.
