Edward George Earle Lytton Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton PC (25 May 1803 – 18 January 1873), was an English novelist, poet, playwright, and politician. Bulwer-Lytton\'s literary career began in 1820 and spanned much of the nineteenth century. He was immensely popular with the reading public and wrote in a variety of genres, including historical fiction mystery, romance, the occult, and science fiction. He coined the phrases \"pursuit of the almighty dollar\", \"the pen is mightier than the sword\", as well as the infamous opening line \"It was a dark and stormy night\".

In 1828 Pelham brought him public acclaim and established his reputation as a wit and dandy. The book also made a significant contribution in the changing of men\'s fashion. Prior to the novel, evening wear for men could be of any colour, but the upper-class quickly adopted the habit of using black evening wear only, a habit that is still dominant, just as the characters in Pelham. Its intricate plot and humorous, intimate portrayal of pre-Victorian dandyism kept gossips busy trying to associate public figures with characters in the book. Pelham resembled Benjamin Disraeli\'s recent first novel Vivian Grey (1827).

Bulwer-Lytton reached the height of his popularity with the publication of Godolphin (1833). This was followed by The Pilgrims of the Rhine (1834), The Last Days of Pompeii (1834), Rienzi, Last of the Roman Tribunes (1835), and Harold, the Last of the Saxons (1848)The Last Days of Pompeii. He also wrote the horror story \"The Haunted and the Haunters\" or \"The House and the Brain\" (1859). Another novel dealing with a supernatural theme was A Strange Story (1862), which was an influence on Bram Stoker\'s Dracula.
