Hard cover. Good condition.
The Prince of Storytellers: The Life of E. Phillips Oppenheim by Robert Standish is a biography of the prolific English novelist who, during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, earned international fame for his fast-paced thrillers, romances, and tales of intrigue. Known as “the prince of storytellers,” Oppenheim produced more than a hundred novels and countless stories that captured the glamour, espionage, and social tensions of his era, making him one of the most widely read authors of his day. Standish traces Oppenheim’s rise from modest beginnings to literary celebrity, examining his work habits, cosmopolitan lifestyle, and the cultural forces that shaped his popularity, while also considering how his reputation faded after his death despite the enduring appeal of his page-turning narratives.
