Autorenporträt
At one point considered to be, "the most promising of all the young American authors writing today," Louis Bromfield (1896 - 1956) was a bestselling author and dedicated conservationist. Beginning with his first novel, The Green Bay Tree (1924) Bromfield would consistently produce books that were both critical and commercial darlings such as Possession (1925), Early Autumn (1926), and A Good Woman (1927) with Early Autumn securing him a Pulitzer in 1927. Later in life, his books would see a shift from themes of family and tradition to those of agriculture and sustainability as he became more involved with the environmental movement and brought his focus to the creation of the experimental Malabar Farm in Ohio.
