Produktbeschreibung

The man who sat at the marble-topped table of the Café of the Great Captain-if I translate the sign aright-was a man of leisure. A tall man, with a trim beard and grave grey eyes that searched the street absently as though not quite certain of his quest. He sipped a coffee con leche and drummed a little tune on the table with his slender white hands. He was dressed in black, which is the conventional garb in Spain, and his black cloak was lined with velvet. His cravat was of black satin, and his well-fitting trousers were strapped under his pointed boots, in the manner affected by certain caballero.

Autorenporträt

Edgar Wallace (1875-1932) was an English writer, poet and journalist. He was such a prolific writer that his publisher claimed his work could account for a quarter of all books sold in England. He wrote countless books, screenplays, poems and historical non-fiction, spawning over one hundred and sixty films based on his work. He unfortunately passed away suddenly before he could see his most famous creation 'King Kong' come to life. It has been adapted several times over the years, notably by Peter Jackson of Lord of the Rings fame, and more recently in 'Godzilla vs Kong' starring Millie Bobby Brown.
