Max O'Rell was the pen name of Léon Paul Blouet, born in Brittany, France, on March 2, 1848. Renowned for his humorous and satirical writings, O'Rell's literary career flourished in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Before gaining recognition as an author, O'Rell was an educator and served as a French master at London's St. Paul's School. His experiences in England greatly influenced his works, which often provided a comedic take on the cultural differences between the French and the English. One of O'Rell's acclaimed books, 'John Bull, Junior; or, French as She is Traduced' (1887), exemplifies his style, cleverly dissecting the linguistic and societal nuances that give rise to misunderstandings between the two nations.

He passed away on May 25, 1903, but left behind a legacy that still elicits smiles and nods of recognition for its astute portrayal of human nature and national idiosyncrasies.
