Autorenporträt
Cecil Torr was an erudite English author, primarily known for his charming collection 'Small Talk at Wreyland,' wherein he documented the life, customs, and sayings of the inhabitants of Wreyland, a hamlet in Devon, England. Born in the 1850s, Torr's academic and literary life was marked by a fascination with antiquarian topics and local history. While 'Small Talk at Wreyland' may not have catapulted Torr to the status of a literary giant, his scholarly approach and meticulous rendering of rural life at the turn of the 20th century have made his works valued pieces for both historians and literary enthusiasts alike. Torr's writings, which may include several series of 'Small Talk at Wreyland,' are more than mere compilations of anecdotes and folk wisdom; they are a portal to an era characterized by simpler societal exchanges and the minutiae of daily living often overlooked by grand historical narratives. His literary style was distinctive for its blend of personal recollection and historical research, creating a tapestry of the past that resonated with authenticity and a deep-seated appreciation for the nuances of regional English culture. Torr's works serve not only as a chronicle of Wreyland but also as a reflection of a nation's changing face at a critical juncture in history.
