Newton Tarkington was een Amerikaanse romanschrijver en dramaturg, ooit geprezen als Amerika's grootste levende auteur. Zijn werk ving vakkundig de essentie van de Amerikaanse samenleving en haar transformaties, waarbij hij zijn verhalen vaak doordrenkte met een nostalgische toon en met zorg uitgewerkte personages. Tarkingtons literaire bekwaamheid lag in zijn vermogen om de diepten van menselijke relaties en maatschappelijke verschuivingen te verkennen met linguïstische gratie en narratieve vaardigheid, wat zijn reputatie als een vooraanstaande stem in de vroege 20e-eeuwse Amerikaanse literatuur vestigde.
