Autorenporträt
Charles Felton Pidgin (1844-1923) was an American author, statistician, and inventor, best known for his works in the popular literary genre of local color fiction, which flourished during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Pidgin's contribution to this genre is exemplified in his continuation of New England small-town narratives with his work 'Further Adventures of Quincy Adams Sawyer and Mason's Corner Folks'. This particular book follows the much-admired 'Quincy Adams Sawyer and Mason's Corner Folks' (1902), which endeared readers with its portrayal of quaint village life and its cast of charming, if sometimes eccentric, characters. Pidgin's Mason Corner series taps into a nostalgia for an idealized American past, a theme that resonated with the readers of his time who were facing rapid modernization and social change. His works not only entertained but also served as a cultural commentary on the transition of American rural communities during a significant period of history. Pidgin's literary style often combines gentle humor with an astute observation of human nature, reflecting both the virtues and foibles found within the tapestry of small-town America. His portrayal of character and setting exhibits a fondness for detail and empathy for his subjects, marking his books not only as fictional entertainment but also as valuable social documents of his era.
