Автор жөнүндө

Edgar Wallace (1875-1932) stands as one of the prodigious figures in early 20th-century British crime fiction, with a prolific output that included journalism, novels, screenplays, and stage plays. Born into poverty in London, Wallace overcame his humble beginnings to become one of the most widely read and translated authors of his time. His writing career began in the military as a correspondent, which later propelled him into the newspaper industry. Wallace's foray into literature spanned various genres, but he is best remembered for his detective stories. 'The Clue of the Twisted Candle' is one such work, showcasing Wallace's knack for gripping plots, brisk narrative pace, and inventive twists. His work exudes the characteristic Edwardian preoccupation with crime and forensic science, often blending sensationalism with meticulously plotted mysteries. Wallace's literary style is notable for its visual vividness, directness, and the swift unfolding of events, which has been argued to reflect the influence of his journalistic background. Throughout his career, Wallace created enduring characters such as the 'Just Men' series, yet he remains best recognized for creating the iconic character of 'King Kong,' which was adapted into the famous motion picture shortly after his death. His contributions to the development of the crime thriller genre cannot be overstated, with his works continuing to be enjoyed by readers and acting as a template for crime writers worldwide.
