Mary Eliza Bakewell Gaunt was an Australian novelist, born on February 20, 1861, in Chiltern, Victoria. Gaunt was a prolific writer known for her novels, short stories, novellas, autobiographies, and non-fiction works. She began her literary career with the publication of her first novel, Dave's Sweetheart, in 1894. Throughout her career, Gaunt was highly engaged with the social issues of her time, particularly the complexities of colonialism, gender roles, and societal expectations. Her works often explored the lives of women, presenting both their struggles and their resilience. Aside from her novels, Gaunt also gained recognition for her keen observations on colonial life, which she conveyed through vivid storytelling and rich characterizations. Later in life, Gaunt lived in various countries, including England and France. She passed away on January 19, 1942, in Cannes, France, at the age of 80.
