Giới thiệu về tác giả

Enoch Arnold Bennett (1867–1931) was a renowned English novelist, playwright, critic, and essayist, whose contribution to literary realism marked him as a leading figure in the early 20th-century literature. Born in Hanley, Staffordshire, Bennett drew much of his inspiration from the everyday lives of the working class in the industrialized Potteries region – the backdrop for many of his acclaimed novels, including the Clayhanger trilogy and ‘The Old Wives’ Tale’ (1908), which secured his reputation for psychological depth and detail in character development. Bennett’s literary style was marked by a unique blend of naturalism and wit, a prolific output that spanned various genres, from social comedy to historical romance. Aside from fiction, Bennett was also a significant voice in practical philosophy, epitomized in his highly influential self-help book, ‘How to Live on 24 Hours a Day’ (1910). This particular work explored the mastery of time management and personal productivity, underlined by the belief in the significance of art and literature in one’s daily life. Bennett’s literary contributions have been extensively critiqued, such as in ‘Arnold Bennett and His Novels’ by James Hepburn, underlining his influence on both literature and early self-help movements. Bennett’s works remain widely read and his perspectives on self-cultivation continue to resonate, demonstrating his lasting impact on the literary cannon and beyond.
