Edgar Saltus (1855-1921) was an American writer celebrated for his distinctive style, dark wit, and exploration of decadence and philosophical themes. Known for works like The Anatomy of Negation and Mr. Incoul’s Misadventure, Saltus’s writing is characterized by its elegance, psychological depth, and often satirical takes on high society and human nature. Influenced by both philosophical pessimism and French literature, Saltus carved a unique space in American letters, leaving a legacy as a bold and original voice of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
