    • Résumé :
      ?Dark Nights? is a collection of short stories by Thomas Burke, originally appearing in various English and American periodicals. Thomas Burke (29 November 1886 ? 22 September 1945) was a British writer most famous for his ?Limehouse Nights?, a 1916 collection of stories based on life in the poor London district of Limehouse. This volume will appeal to all lovers of the short story form, and it is not to be missed by fans and collectors of Burke's masterful work. Contents include: ?Roses Round the Door?, ?Sontana in Scarlet?, ?Proud Mother?, ?Sweet and Low?, ?The Purple Star?, ?The Bloomsbury Wonder?, ?The Message?, ?Estella and Dolores?, ?Mysterious Disappearance?, ?Beautiful Doll?, ?The Black Stick?, ?The Yellow Box?, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

      Biographie:
      Thomas Burke was a British writer born on November 29, 1886, in Clapham Junction, London, to parents whose names are not widely recorded. He gained prominence through his portrayal of urban life in early 20th-century London, particularly focusing on the working-class neighborhoods. His first major success was Limehouse Nights, a collection of short stories set in the impoverished Limehouse district, which earned him attention for its raw and vivid depictions of marginalized communities. Many of his works are known for their atmospheric detail and their empathetic portrayal of people living in the shadows of the city's wealth and elegance. Burke often used the fictional Chinese character Quong Lee as a narrative voice, weaving together cultural commentary and storytelling. In addition to fiction, he also wrote essays and urban sketches that revealed his deep fascination with the streets of London. His work reflects a unique blend of romanticism and realism, illuminating the spiritual and physical contours of city life. Burke died in Bloomsbury, London, on September 22, 1945, at the age of 58, leaving behind a significant body of literature that captured the soul of London s lesser-seen quarters....
