Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman

    31 oktober 1852 – 13 maart 1930

    Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman vangt op meesterlijke wijze het leven in New England, met de nadruk op de psychologische portretten van haar personages. Haar werken verkennen vaak de religieuze conventies en maatschappelijke beperkingen die het leven in de 19e eeuw vormden. Freeman was een pionier in het afbeelden van de complexiteit van menselijke relaties en de innerlijke strijd van individuen. Haar inzichtelijke kijk op de menselijke natuur en haar unieke stijl maken haar tot een belangrijke figuur in de Amerikaanse literatuur.
