作者简介
Marie Belloc Lowndes (1868–1947) was an English novelist, renowned for her psychological thrillers and insightful depictions of early 20th-century London life. Born into an intellectual family, with her mother being the writer Bessie Rayner Parkes and her father, Louis Belloc, a barrister, she cultivated a literary flair that would see her become a prolific author. Lowndes' skills in capturing the complexities of the human psyche earned her critical acclaim, with works that often explored themes of suspense, mystery, and the darker aspects of human nature. Her narrative style is characterized by subtle irony and an adept use of suspense, which keep readers engaged while reflecting the social mores of her time. Perhaps one of her most enduring works is 'The Lodger' (1913), a novel that delves into the fear surrounding the Jack the Ripper murders. However, her historical insight is also evident in her book 'King Edward VII', which showcases her versatility as an author. In this biography, she presents a nuanced portrait of the monarch, examining his role in both public and private spheres, and shedding light on the undercurrents of political and social life during his reign. Through well-researched content and accessible prose, Lowndes makes the late Victorian and Edwardian eras come to life, affirming her status as a scholarly writer with a profound understanding of the historical narrative.
