Sobre l'autor
Edgar Wallace, born Richard Horatio Edgar Wallace on April 1, 1875, in Greenwich, London, was a prolific British author, playwright, and journalist whose works have left an indelible mark on the crime and thriller genres. Wallace's life was as colorful as his fiction; he was born out of wedlock and adopted by a fish porter and his wife, which instilled in him a resilience that would define his career.Wallace's early life was marked by a series of odd jobs, including a stint in the British Army, before he found his calling in journalism. His reporting during the Second Boer War brought him recognition, but it was his transition to fiction that cemented his legacy. Wallace's prodigious output—over 170 novels, 24 plays, and countless articles—earned him the moniker "The King of Thrillers." His creation of enduring characters like Inspector J.G. Reeder and Sanders of the River captivated readers and influenced contemporaries and successors alike, including Agatha Christie and Alfred Hitchcock.Wallace's work was not without controversy. His involvement in the film industry, particularly with the early drafts of the screenplay for "King Kong," showcased his innovative spirit but also highlighted tensions between creative vision and commercial pressures. Despite his immense popularity, Wallace struggled with financial instability, often due to his extravagant lifestyle and relentless work pace.A visionary in serialized storytelling, Wallace's influence extends beyond literature into film and television, where his narratives continue to inspire adaptations. His ability to blend high-stakes drama with intricate plotting has made his work timeless, ensuring that Edgar Wallace remains a cornerstone of the thriller genre.
