Marie-Joseph Eugène Sue, known as Eugène Sue, was a French novelist born on January 26, 1804, in Paris, France. He is best known for popularizing the genre of the serial novel in France, particularly through his groundbreaking work The Mysteries of Paris, which was serialized from 1842 to 1843. This novel, with its vivid depictions of Parisian society and its complex plot, became immensely popular and was widely imitated by other writers. Sue's other significant work, The Wandering Jew, published in 1844, continued his exploration of social issues, combining adventure, mystery, and philosophical themes. His works often dealt with the inequalities and injustices of society, particularly focusing on the lives of the lower classes. Eugène Sue's writing was influential in shaping the genre of serialized fiction and was known for its blend of dramatic storytelling with social commentary. He passed away on August 3, 1857, at the age of 53 in Annecy-le-Vieux, France, and was buried in the Cemetery Loverchy in Annecy. Throughout his life, Sue was deeply engaged in both literary and political spheres, using his writing to challenge societal norms and promote social change.
