Dans Morts violentes, il n'y a pas de fantômes ou de phénomènes anormaux, mais une exploration clinique de la réalité la plus crue, dont l'issue est l'insoutenable horreur de la mort. A travers les cauchemars dela guerre de Sécession, qui valent bien ceux d'Edgar P?, Bierce porte la short story à son plus haut degré de perfection et s'affirme comme l'un des précurseurs de la littérature américaine du XX° siècle.

In England from 1872 onwards, he worked for humor magazines such as... Figaro and the FunHe returned to the United States in 1875, beginning a long period of collaboration with various newspapers.
He would become one of the best-known journalists and writers of his time, leaving no one indifferent to his sharply critical and satirical sense of humanity. With insolent humor, he attacked all quadrants of society: religions, politics, economics, sentimentality... In 1913, at the age of seventy-one, Bierce left to join the Mexican Revolution, without leaving a trace. His death remains a mystery, but it is believed that it may have occurred during the Battle of Ojinaga in January 1914.
