Autorenporträt
Grace Livingston Hill (1865–1947) was a prolific American writer during the early 20th century, famed for her work in the Christian Romance genre. Born into a family with strong Presbyterian roots in Wellsville, New York, Hill's writing career was largely influenced by her religious upbringing. Her literary output includes over 100 novels and numerous short stories, characterized by their blend of romance, adventure, and Christian morals. Although not exhaustive, 'Kerry' stands as a testament to her well-received storytelling abilities. Hill's writing often features heroines who are both virtuous and resilient, navigating through social and personal challenges. She was particularly adept at portraying the contemporary social issues of her time, which helped her to connect with a broad readership. Hill's strategic use of fiction to promulgate Christian ideals, while still engaging readers with compelling storylines, has solidified her legacy in the annals of inspirational literature. Her works not only provided moral instructional narratives to her audience but also offered entertainment and a sense of hope during the turbulent years of World War I and the Great Depression.
