Über den Autor


Alice Perrin (1867-1934) was a British writer whose work was greatly influenced by the Anglo-Indian experience. She explored romance, religion and the supernatural, while providing earnest commentary on the political and cultural impact of colonization. Perrin wrote a total of 17 novels including Into Temptation, The Spell of the Jungle, and The Anglo-Indians. She was often compared to Rudyard Kipling, whose stories shared a similar setting and tone. In 1932, Perrin published her final novel, Other Sheep, just two years before her death.
