ESO 3. CULTURE. BRITISH AUTHORS.

H.G.Wells (1866-1946)

He was an English author best known for his science fiction novels such as The Time Machine, War of the Worlds and The Invisible Man. His later novels became increasingly political and so his earlier novels are more widely read.

Agatha Christie (1890-1976)

She was an English crime fiction writer. She is remembered for writing 66 mystery novels, particularly those featuring the detectives Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple. She is often referred to as as the Queen of Crime and has been called the best selling writer of books of all time. Her stage play, The Mousetrap, holds the record for the longest run ever in London.

Charles Dickens (1812-1870)

His books first appeared in serialised form in newspapers and other publications. Some of his most famous books are David Copperfield, Great Expectations and Oliver Twist.

During his lifetime Dickens' works enjoyed unprecedented popularity and fame, but it was in the twentieth century that his literary genius was fully recognized by critics and scholars. His novels and short stories continue to enjoy an enduring popularity among the general reading public.
