FAMOUS BRITISH AUTHORS
HUGH WALPOLE
Sir Hugh Seymour Walpole, CBE was an English novelist. He was the son of an Anglican
clergyman, intended for a career in the church but drawn instead to writing. Among those who
encouraged him were the authors Henry James and Arnold Bennett.
After his first novel, The Wooden Horse, in 1909, Walpole wrote prolifically, producing at least
one book every year. He was a spontaneous story-teller, writing quickly to get all his ideas on
paper, seldom revising. His first novel to achieve major success was his third, Mr Perrin and Mr
Traill, a tragicomic story of a fatal clash between two schoolmasters.
