Autorenporträt
Robert William Chambers (1865-1933) was an American author best known for his influential supernatural fiction, particularly his collection of short stories titled 'The King in Yellow' (1895), which remains a landmark in the field of horror literature. Born in Brooklyn, New York, Chambers pursued art in his early career, studying at the Art Students League of New York and later at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He initially gained recognition as an illustrator; however, his focus shifted towards writing at the behest of the literary market. Chambers displayed remarkable versatility as a writer, authoring not only works of supernatural fiction but also romance, historical fiction, and adventure novels. His foray into the fantastical and macabre, however, is what cemented his legacy, influencing a generation of writers, including H.P. Lovecraft. 'Who Goes There!' is a lesser-known work by Chambers, evidencing his broader literary output beyond the horror genre. Chambers's literary style is characterized by a blend of romanticism mixed with eerie and otherworldly elements, a style that has intrigued readers and inspired fellow authors. Despite the varying reception of his broader oeuvre over time, Chambers's work, particularly in the realm of the uncanny, continues to be of significant interest to scholars and enthusiasts of early speculative fiction.
