Pierre Saurel and French Canadian pulps
« on: October 16, 2015, 06:52:53 PM »
I've been browsing the French Canadian "romans policiers" uploaded by Jean Lafayette. I Googled the author of many of the books, one Pierre Saurel. It turns out he had quite a career. Saurel's real name was Robert Daignault. He was an incredibly prolific author (934 issues of IXE-13 alone), but that wasn't all. Daignault was also a radio writer, a folk musician, an actor on stage, radio and TV, and the head of a theater company. He churned out countless pulp pages for IXE-13, Albert Brien, Domino Noir, Diane, and others. In 1980 he launched a series of popular detective novels starring "Le Manchot," a one-handed private eye. Over the next five years he produced 47 volumes. Daignault retired to Florida in the 1990s. He died there in 2003.
