Francis Marion Crawford

    Francis Marion Crawford was een Amerikaanse romanschrijver, gevierd om zijn productieve oeuvre. Zijn verhalen duiken vaak in historische omgevingen en hedendaagse maatschappelijke kwesties, vaak geworteld in zijn ervaringen in Italië. Crawford bezat een onderscheidend talent voor het oproepen van sfeer en het verkennen van de psychologische diepten van zijn personages. Zijn geprezen Saracinesca-serie wordt bijvoorbeeld geroemd om zijn nauwgezette weergave van de Romeinse samenleving en zijn innovatieve, vroege portrettering van de maffia in de literatuur.
