Autorenporträt
Charles Beadle was a novelist and pulp fiction writer, best known for his adventure stories published in American pulp magazines, as well as his novels that explored the bohemian lifestyle in Paris. He was born at sea on October 27, 1881, to his father, Henry Beadle, a ship captain, and his mother, Isabelle. His works often delved into the realm of adventure, exploring themes of survival, the human condition, and societal dynamics. Beadle's writing style and the subjects he chose to tackle were influenced by his eclectic experiences, including his exposure to diverse cultures and the bohemian world of Paris. His ability to weave compelling narratives about the tensions between the old and new worlds, survival, and self-discovery made his work stand out in the literary landscape of his time. His most notable works include Constitution of the State of Maine: An In-depth Analysis of Maine's State Constitution and Governance, Reminiscences of a Victorian, and Witch-Doctors. Beadle's legacy lives on through his exploration of diverse genres, particularly adventure fiction, and his vivid portrayal of life in both colonial and bohemian contexts.
