Autor

Sir Thomas Henry Hall, better known as Hall Caine, was a British novelist, dramatist, short story writer, poet, and critic in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Caine enjoyed exceptional fame throughout his lifetime. He published fifteen novels on infidelity, divorce, domestic abuse, illegitimacy, infanticide, religious prejudice, and women's rights, becoming a worldwide literary celebrity and selling 10 million copies. Caine was the highest-paid novelist of his day. The Eternal City is the first novel to sell more than one million copies globally. Caine was born in Runcorn to a Manx father and a Cumbrian mother, but grew up in Liverpool. Caine received architectural draughtsman training after completing four years in school. He spent his boyhood holidays with family in the Isle of Man. At the age of seventeen, he spent a year as a schoolmaster in Maughold. After that, he returned to Liverpool and began a career in journalism, eventually becoming a leader writer for the Liverpool Mercury. As a lecturer and theatre critic, he formed a network of prominent literary contacts who impacted him. Caine traveled to London at Dante Gabriel Rossetti's recommendation and stayed with the poet, serving as secretary and companion throughout Rossetti's final years.
