Scrittore e giornalista inglese, membro della Royal Society of Literature dal 1924. La sua produzione è caratterizzata da uno stile semplice ma eclettico capace di adattarsi perfettamente ad ogni dimensione della sua multiforme opera. Sebbene la sua notorietà sia legata strettamente ai romanzi realisti ambientati nei quartieri popolari di Londra, di cui l’autore descrive fedelmente la miseria e la violenza (fra tutti ricordiamo la trilogia Tales of Mean Streets, A Child of the Jago, To London Town), le detective stories rappresentano un vero fiore all’occhiello della sua produzione. In queste Morrison riesce a mistificare i temi caratteristici della sua intera produzione, rendendoli appetibili anche tra quanti rifuggivano al tempo le polemiche legate alle questioni sociali.
