Autorenporträt
Anne "Annie" French Hector, better known by her pen name Mrs. Alexander, was a popular 19th-century novelist born on June 23, 1825, in Dublin, Ireland. She became well-known for her works, which often centered on young women navigating complex emotional and social dilemmas. Her novels typically explored themes of love, family, money, and societal expectations, with many of her characters facing the challenges of balancing these competing forces, sometimes complicated by a legacy or inheritance. Mrs. Alexander s stories often focused on the internal struggles of her protagonists, highlighting their growth and development as they confronted personal and moral conflicts. In 1858, she married Alexander Hector, and she spent much of her life in London, where she continued to write until her death on July 10, 1902. Her works were highly regarded during her lifetime, and she enjoyed popularity among readers of her era. Though her fame has since waned, her novels remain a reflection of the societal and gender dynamics of 19th-century Britain, offering insight into the challenges faced by women of that time.
