Autorenporträt
Mary Jane Holmes (April 5, 1825 - October 6, 1907) was a prolific American author of the 19th century, best known for her sentimental novels that provided a unique window into the social and domestic life of the era. Holmes was born in Brookfield, Massachusetts, and later moved to Kentucky, whose cultural backdrop heavily influenced much of her writing. She was once celebrated as one of the most popular writers of her day, with her books rivaling those of Harriet Beecher Stowe in terms of sales. Holmes specialized in narratives that often revolved around domestic life, the trials and tribulations of women, and the intricacies of familial relationships, weaving a literary style characterized by clear storytelling and vivid characterizations. Her novel 'Tempest and Sunshine' (1854), for instance, exemplifies her ability to contrast characters' personalities and environments, focusing on the contrasts between two sisters, representing the fluctuating moods suggested by the title. Despite being sometimes dismissed as light domestic fiction, her work provided a substantial contribution to the understanding of gender roles and societal expectations during her time. Through her writing, Holmes offered a form of entertainment that also subtly critiqued the societal norms enforced upon women. Her books, once found in many households across the United States, are now a testament to the tastes and values of the American reading public in the latter half of the 19th century.
