Müəllif haqqında
E. Phillips Oppenheim (1866–1946) was a prolific British author known for his impressive output of over 100 novels and numerous short stories. His work largely falls into the genre of romance and espionage—an intriguing blend that captivated early 20th-century readers. Oppenheim's storytelling was marked by the creation of intricate plots, coupled with a keen insight into the psychology of his characters, who typically found themselves entangled in a web of intrigue and high society (Foxcroft, 2012). One notable work, 'Passers-By' (1925), exemplifies Oppenheim's literary style, weaving suspense and drama within its narrative course. As a master of the spy novel, he is often credited with contributions to the genre that predate, and perhaps influence, the likes of Ian Fleming and John le Carré. Oppenheim's popularity during his lifetime could be likened to that of his contemporaries H.G. Wells and Arthur Conan Doyle, though modern recognition of his work remains comparatively modest. His literary pursuits reflect a deep understanding of the interwar period, often exposing the undercurrents of class and power in a rapidly changing world. The enduring charm of Oppenheim's work lies in its escapism, drawing readers into a bygone era filled with elegance, danger, and romantic escapades (Greenspan, 1992).
