Autorenporträt
Ernest Charles Temple Thurston, born on 23 September 1879 in Halesworth, Suffolk, England, was a British poet, playwright, and author. He was the youngest of four children born to Frank Joseph Thurston, a brewery manager, and Georgina Temple. The family relocated to Maidstone before moving to Cork, Ireland, after the death of his mother. Thurston's early interest in writing led him to publish two poetry collections at just sixteen and his first novel, The Apple of Eden, at eighteen. In Cork, he met Katherine Cecil Madden, an established journalist and novelist, and they married. Though their marriage ended in 1910, Thurston continued his literary career, working various jobs, including as a brewer and reporter, before achieving success with The City of Beautiful Nonsense in 1909. Thurston was married again in 1911, but his second marriage ended in divorce. He married Emily Cowlin in 1925, and their relationship remained relatively private. Throughout his career, he wrote over forty books and his works were frequently adapted into films. Known for his plays, The Wandering Jew was among his most celebrated. Temple Thurston died on 19 March 1933, at the age of 53, after a brief illness.
