Despre autor
E. Phillips Oppenheim, an English novelist, was born on October 22, 1866, in London and had a prolific writing career that spanned over 40 years. As a master of espionage and crime thrillers, his literary career began with the publication of his first novel, 'Expiation,' in 1887. He gained significant recognition for his novel 'The Mystery of Mr. Bernard Brown' in 1898. His dexterity in weaving intriguing tales of mystery and suspense became consistently evident in his works. One of Oppenheim's memorable novels, 'The Zeppelin's Passenger' (1918), encapsulates his writing style which often involved high-stakes adventure, exotic locales, and the British upper class's intrigue. His oeuvre includes over 100 novels, and he is credited with popularizing the spy-fiction genre, inspiring later authors in the field such as John le Carré and Graham Greene. Oppenheim's works reflect the tumultuous times in which he lived, often commenting on the social and political milieu of early 20th century Europe. He wrote in a period where the genre of espionage was bolstered by global conflicts, and his stories resonated with the anxieties and fascinations of his readership. His later works continued to entertain and intrigue, solidifying his reputation as the 'prince of storytellers.' He continued to write and publish up until his death on February 3, 1946, leaving behind a legacy of pioneering the genre of spy fiction and influencing countless writers and readers alike.
