Autorenporträt
Marie Belloc Lowndes (1868–1947) was an accomplished British novelist and prolific writer, remembered chiefly for her psychological thriller 'The Lodger', which has been adapted for stage and screen multiple times. Born into a family of intellectuals—her mother was a feminist and writer while her brother Hilaire Belloc was a well-known poet, essayist, and historian—Marie carved her own niche in the world of literature with her striking narrative style. 'The End of Her Honeymoon' represents Lowndes's keen insight into human psychology and her ability to weave suspense into the fabric of her stories. She published over forty novels and numerous short stories throughout her career, focusing on themes of love, betrayal, and the mysteries underlying ordinary lives. Her literary style is characterized by a detailed exploration of character psychology, a trait that aligns her with the traditions of novelists like Wilkie Collins and the later works of Charles Dickens. She often set her stories against the backdrop of contemporary events or societal issues, adding a layer of immediacy to her narratives. Lowndes's legacy is defined by her exploration of the macabre within the mundane and her subtle commentary on the social issues of her time. Her deep understanding of human nature and the hidden complexities of domestic life resonated with readers during her lifetime and continues to attract a modern audience interested in the psychological thriller genre.
