Autorenporträt

Carolyn Wells (1862-1942) was a prolific American writer and poet known for her light verse, mystery novels, and children's books. Born in Rahway, New Jersey, she embarked on her literary career after the publication of her first book, 'At the Sign of the Sphinx' (1896). Wells had a penchant for clever wordplay and whimsy, evident in her foray into children's literature with titles such as 'Mother Goose's Menagerie'-a testament to her imaginative re-envisioning of traditional nursery rhymes. Her literary style frequently incorporated humor and satire, playing to the tastes of both young audiences and adults. Beyond her work for children, Wells authored over 170 books, spanning genres that included mystery, humor, and verse. She is perhaps best remembered for her mystery series featuring detective Fleming Stone. Despite her passing over eight decades ago, Wells' contribution to different literary genres continues to be recognized, with her works often celebrated for their enduring charm and wit. Her literature remains a subject of study for those interested in early 20th-century American children's books and popular fiction, and her name is etched in the annals of American literary history.
