作者简介
Richard Horatio Edgar Wallace (1875–1932) was a prolific British writer, known for his detective fiction, thriller novels, and journalistic career. Born into impoverished circumstances and initially brought up in London's working-class environments, Wallace transcended his socio-economic limitations, becoming one of the most widely read authors in the early 20th century. Though he began his working life with various odd jobs, his flair for writing soon ushered him into journalism. From this springboard, Wallace launched a staggeringly productive literary career, penning numerous popular novels, including 'Those Folk of Bulboro,' a work that showcases his characteristic narrative momentum and penchant for vivid characterizations (Wallace, 1918). Wallace's literary style often combined fast-paced plots with an intricate understanding of the criminal underworld, a reflection of his interests and earlier life experiences. His work was influential in shaping popular genres, including the thriller and detective story, leaving a legacy mirrored in contemporary literature and cinema. Despite his untimely death, Wallace left behind a vast canon of work, including nearly 200 novels, 18 stage plays, and 957 short stories, ensuring his place as a cornerstone of early crime and adventure fiction (Lane, 1938).
