Beschreibung

W. W. Jacobs was a prolific writer of short stories. His topics were typically humorous and nautical in nature, but they weren't exclusively so. This anthology includes some of his most famous short stories, including "The Monkey's Paw," a story of the supernatural in which a monkey's hand grants three wishes to its owner, but at huge cost.

Über den Autor

Jacobs was born in Sydney, New South Wales, on 29 August 1854. He was the sixth surviving son of John Jacobs, a publican who had emigrated from London in around 1837, and his wife Sarah, née Myers. Jacobs was educated at Sydney Grammar School and at the University of Sydney, to which he won a scholarship for classics, mathematics and chemistry. He did not complete his studies in Sydney, but left for Britain at the age of 18.
