Autorenporträt
Percival Christopher Wren (1875-1941) was a British writer, best known for his adventure fiction set in exotic locales. His most famous work is 'Beau Geste', which tells the tale of the French Foreign Legion and has become a classic of its genre. Born in Deptford, London, Wren spent much of his early life abroad due to his father's position as a schoolmaster in India. Later, Wren himself would serve in the Indian Education Service. His experiences abroad and in military environments colored much of his writing, lending it authenticity and vivid detail. Details of his life during certain periods are scant, and what is known is often derived from semi-autobiographical elements woven into his novels. Wren's literary style is characterized by action-packed narratives, a romantic view of military life, and a sometimes nostalgic portrayal of colonial settings. The 'P. C. Wren: Collected Works' is a testament to the range and volume of his writing, encompassing short stories, novels, and possibly apocryphal lore about his own enigmatic past. Despite modern critique on the grounds of colonial attitudes present in his work, Wren's stories remain emblematic examples of early 20th-century adventure fiction, reflecting the ethos of an empire at its twilight.
