Autorenporträt
Frances Hodgson Burnett (1849–1924) was an English-American novelist and playwright best known for her children's stories. Burnett spent her early life in England, where she began writing to help support her struggling family. After moving to the United States, she achieved literary success with her novel 'That Lass o' Lowries' in 1877, which marked her as a promising writer. However, it was 'Little Lord Fauntleroy' (1886) that catapulted her to international fame, establishing her literary reputation. Burnett's remarkable narrative style, often involving transformations through the natural world and the process of healing, is keenly observed in her classic works 'The Secret Garden' (1911) and 'A Little Princess' (1905). 'Theo,' although less known, is reflective of her adept characterizations and her keen insight into human emotions and interpersonal relationships. She was adept at writing for an adult audience but is predominantly celebrated for her contribution to children's literature. Burnett's work has been commended for its vivid character descriptions and the ability to evoke sympathy from her readers through her adept storytelling.
