Autorenporträt
Mrs. Henry Wood (17 January 1814 - February 10, 1887) was an English author. She is well known for her 1861 novel East Lynne. Many of her works sold well abroad and were extensively read in the United States. She was more well-known in Australia than Charles Dickens at the time. Ellen Price was born in Worcester in 1814. She married Henry Wood in 1836, and they resided in Dauphin , South France, for 20 years. Following the failure of Wood's business, the family (including four children) returned to England and resided in Upper Norwood, near London, where Ellen Wood began writing. This benefited the family. Henry Wood died in 1866. She wrote more than 30 novels, many of which (particularly East Lynne) were extremely popular. Some of the most well-known include Danesbury House, Oswald Cray, Mrs. Halliburton's Troubles, The Channings, Lord Oakburn's Daughters, and The Shadow of Ashlydyat. Her literary tone is "conservative and Christian," with occasional religious rhetoric.
