Wilkie Collins Adapted by Christopher Hall Activities by Janet Cameron Mystery & horror On her eighteenth birthday, Rachel Verinder receives a very special present: the Moonstone – a large yellow diamond from India: but that night the Moonstone is stolen… In what T. S. Eliot called ‘the first, the longest, and the best of modern detective novels’, Wilkie Collins tells a story full of mystery, suspense and psychological insight. Dossier: Imperialism on the Indian Subcontinent Exit test

View Author's Page
(Londres 1824-1889) Dramaturgo, novelista y prolífico autor de relatos. A los 17 años comienza a trabajar en una empresa de comercio de té mientras escribe Ioláni, o Tahití tal como era (Gótica nº 32), obra que no vio la luz hasta más de un siglo después de su muerte. Estudió Derecho y, aunque nunca llegó a ejercer, sí utilizó los conocimientos jurídicos en muchas de sus obras, y la crítica le considera uno de los padres del género policiaco. En 1851, conoce a Charles Dickens, al que le unirá una profunda amistad y publicará en su semanario All the Year Around sus principales obras. Tras la muerte de Dickens en 1870, su popularidad decae. Padeció de gota reumática la que le acabó provocando una adicción al opio. El epitafio de su tumba le destaca como el autor de la novela La dama de blanco.
