Autorenporträt
Fergus Hume, born Fergusson Wright Hume on July 8, 1859, in England, was a prolific English novelist renowned for his contributions to the mystery and detective fiction genres. Relocating to New Zealand with his family in his teenage years, Hume later moved to Melbourne, Australia, where his writing career was to commence. It was in Melbourne that Hume penned his most famous work, 'The Mystery of a Hansom Cab' (1886), a novel that exceeded the success of Arthur Conan Doyle's inaugural Sherlock Holmes series in its time. The book's immense popularity spurred Hume to devote himself to writing, and he authored over 100 novels throughout his career. 'The Purple Fern' is another example of Hume's literary craftsmanship, taking place within his signature tapestries of intrigue and crime. Hume is hailed for his innovative utilization of the 'whodunit' style, weaving intricate plots that captivate audiences even today. His character development and grasp of the human psyche, combined with his evocative descriptions of the Victorian era, mark him as a significant figure in the realm of detective literature. Though he never achieved the lasting fame of his contemporaries like Doyle, Hume's works remain a testament to his talent and ingenuity in storytelling. Fergus Hume passed away on July 12, 1932, leaving behind a legacy that continues to be studied and appreciated by mystery aficionados and scholars alike.
