Autorenporträt
Eleanor Marie Ingram (1886–1921) was an American author, primarily known for her novel 'The Thing from the Lake', originally serialized in the magazine Everybody's and later published in book form in 1921. Ingram's narrative style often delves into the realms of the supernatural and romantic suspense, intertwining human emotions with otherworldly elements. 'The Thing from the Lake' is a reflection of this style, offering readers a foray into psychological horror and romantic intrigue. Ingram's abilities to compose hauntingly atmospheric scenes, combined with her sharp characterizations, capture the essence of early 20th-century literary trends in which female authors began to challenge traditional genres by infusing them with feminist perspectives and elements of Gothic fantasy. Unfortunately, Ingram's promising literary career was cut short by her untimely death at the age of 35. Nevertheless, her contribution to early speculative fiction and Gothic romance remains noteworthy. Her work continues to be of interest to scholars studying the progression of women's genres and their impact on American literary canon, especially in regards to the intersection of the romance and supernatural fiction.
