George Parsons Lathrop was een Amerikaanse dichter, romanschrijver en krantenredacteur wiens werk de complexiteit van de menselijke ervaring verkende. Zijn proza werd gekenmerkt door een inzichtelijke verkenning van de personagespsychologie en een meeslepende vertelstijl. Lathrops schrijven bezat vaak een lyrische kwaliteit, waarbij zorgvuldig gekozen taal werd gebruikt om levendige beelden op te roepen en diepe emoties te wekken. Zijn literaire bijdragen onderzochten thema's als liefde, verlies en de zoektocht naar betekenis, waarmee hij zijn plaats in de Amerikaanse literatuur veroverde.
