Immerse yourself in the captivating life and remarkable literary achievements of one of the world’s best-selling authors, Harold Robbins (1916-1997). Robbins’ legacy lives on through an impressive collection of over 750 million books sold, earning him an indomitable position as one of the most influential authors of our time.
A Unique Literary Voice
Robbins was not only an astoundingly successful author but also a master of controversy. His debut, “Never Love A Stranger”, caused a fervor upon its release in 1948, renowned for its explicit sexual content. However, the controversy did not discourage Robbins. Instead, it strengthened his resolve to push boundaries and break traditional norms in literature.
This audacious approach extended further as two of his books, “The Adventurer” and “The Betsy”, were adapted into films, further cementing his high-profile status in the literary world. Yet, despite his passing in 1997, Robbins’ influential voice continues to echo through the literary landscape.
Continued Legacy: Books in Order
After his death, various respected ghostwriters, including his dear friend Junius Podrug, whose work Robbins greatly admired, carried on his storytelling legacy. The books in order that have been published posthumously base their genesis on Robbins’ preliminary notes and incomplete works.
