作者简介
William Tufnell Le Queux (1864–1927) was an Anglo-French journalist, writer, and prolific novelist, widely recognized for his espionage thrillers and adventure stories. Best known for works like 'Guilty Bonds' (1891), Le Queux's writing career spanned genres, but he gained considerable notoriety for capitalizing on the espionage fears prevalent in pre-World War I Britain. His understanding of international politics, coupled with an imaginative flair, resulted in gripping tales that resonated with the suspicions and anxieties of his time. Notably, one of his most famous works, 'The Invasion of 1910' (1906), exploited invasion literature motifs, reflecting the growing unease in Europe. Le Queux's literary style is characterized by an intricate blend of factual reporting — stemming from his background in journalism — and sensational fiction, capturing the essence of the turn-of-the-century tension. Though some critics have regarded his writing as verbose and criticized the implausibility of his plots, Le Queux's storytelling prowess and ability to evoke the atmosphere of his era afforded him a significant place in the landscape of early 20th-century literature. His contributions have also been seen as precursors to the modern spy novel, influencing future generations of espionage writers.
