Ray Coryton Hutchinson (23 January 1907 – 3 July 1975) was a best-selling British novelist. His posthumously published novel Rising (1976) was short-listed for the 1976 Booker Prize.
He was born in Finchley, Middlesex and educated at Monkton Combe School, near Bath from 1920 to 1924. He received his BA at Oriel College, Oxford in 1927 and joined the advertising department at Colman's in Norwich. He married Margaret Owen Jones in April 1929.
His first novel, Thou Hast a Devil, was published in 1930. It was followed by The Answering Glory (1932), and The Unforgotten Prisoner (1933), which sold 150,000 copies in the first month. Subsequent novels also sold very well and in 1935 he left Colman's to begin writing full-time.
In March 1940 he joined the army, and in July was posted as captain in the 8th Battalion of the Buffs (Royal East Kent Regiment). He travelled widely during the Second World War, while continuing to write. In October 1945, after preparing the official history of the Paiforce campaign, he was demobilised with the rank of major.
After the war he wrote many more successful novels, often recommended by book clubs. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature in June 1962.
He died before completing the last chapter of his novel, Rising (1976). It was published in September of the same year and short-listed for the Booker Prize in November 1976.
His published work comprises 17 novels and 28 short stories, as well as one play, Last Train South (1938).

Zobacz tłumaczeniebought 2 books, one very small, asked seller to combine shipping but he never answered. paid 46 euros (23 for each shipping) but books actually arrived in one parcel only. asked for refund, no answer
Zobacz tłumaczenieIn case of multiple lots seller structurally charges double/triple postage but sends only a single parcel. This is not allowed. Simply notify Catawiki and seller will be summoned to reimburse.
Zobacz tłumaczenieMooie boeken, onverwachts bezorgd.
Zobacz tłumaczeniePas op. Veel te late verzending. Ongeldige track & trace. Verkoper heeft dubbele verzendkosten in rekening gebracht en is door Catawiki gesommeerd deze terug te betalen. Kavel was wel in orde.
Zobacz tłumaczenieDe verzendkosten zijn terugbetaald, maar moet wel eerst wachten op uitbetaling van catawiki, dus een onterechte beoordeling. De tracking code werkt gewoon. Zeker gezien de boeken bijna gratis gewonnen zijn, een zeer onterechte beoordeling.
