Autorenporträt
Ernest William Hornung, commonly known as E. W. Hornung (1866-1921), was an English author and poet best known for creating the character A. J. Raffles, a gentleman thief in late Victorian England. Born in Middlesbrough, Hornung spent most of his youth in England before moving to Australia for his health. This experience down under provided material for his early literary efforts. Upon returning to England, Hornung began his writing career in earnest, drawing upon his travels and observations of contemporary society for inspiration. His foray into the world of crime fiction was markedly successful; 'Raffles', the mastermind behind 'The Amateur Cracksman' series, quickly became a beloved figure among readers seeking escapism through the charming facade of an antihero. Within 'VINTAGE BRITISH MYSTERIES - 6 Intriguing Brainteasers in One Premium Edition,' Hornung's literary prowess is on full display, encapsulating his penchant for complex characters and intricate plotting which has made him a staple in the genre. His works not only reflected the nuances of Edwardian England but also the underlying tensions and contradictions of its social fabric. Despite being somewhat overshadowed by his brother-in-law Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Hornung's contributions to the mystery genre remain distinguished by their distinctive blend of suspense, wit, and psychological insight.
