O autorovi

Wilkie Collins, an English novelist, playwright, and short story writer, was born on January 8, 1824, and distinguished himself as a master of suspense and a pioneer of the detective fiction genre. Esteemed as a close friend and contemporary of Charles Dickens, Collins' writing is marked by its skillful construction of narrative, and keen attention to the social issues and dilemmas of his time. His most notable contributions include 'The Woman in White' (1859) and 'The Moonstone' (1868), which are considered to be among the first mystery novels and precursors to the modern detective story. The book 'I Say No' is another fine example of his literary art, weaving a tale filled with intrigue and psychological depth. Collins' storytelling is characterized by a deft use of first-person narratives and multiple perspectives – a technique that served to draw readers into the plot's unfolding mysteries. His characters are often embroiled in circumstances involving legal dilemmas and social injustices, reflecting the author's own concerns regarding the rigid Victorian society of the time. Collins' legacy is evident as his works continue to entertain and influence readers and writers alike. He passed away on September 23, 1889, but left behind a rich body of work that cements his place in the annals of English literature.
