Autorenporträt
Anna Katharine Green (1846-1935) was a pioneering figure in the American detective fiction genre, often credited as the mother of the detective novel in America. Her works predate those of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and her first novel, 'The Leavenworth Case' (1878), introduced elements of detection and suspense that would become hallmarks of the genre. Born in Brooklyn, New York, Green was well educated for a woman of her time, attending Ripley Female College in Vermont. Her keen interest in poetry transmuted into crafting complex mystery plots, combining her literary style with intricate legal and procedural details. Green's work often featured strong female characters, which was uncommon in her era and remains notable today. 'A Matter of Millions' (1890) is one such novel wherein she weaves a gripping narrative of inheritance and deceit, showcasing her expertise in creating tension and crafting sharp, elaborate puzzles for the reader to unravel. Green's influence extended widely, and she inspired generations of writers, including Agatha Christie. Green's legacy endures through her more than 40 novels and numerous short stories that continued to captivate readers well into the twentieth century, and her distinct literary contributions to the detective genre are still celebrated by scholars and enthusiasts alike.
