Quelques mots sur l'auteur
Grace Livingston Hill (1865-1947) was an early 20th-century novelist renowned for her prolific output of Christian romance novels and her genteel depictions of contemporary American life. One of her many works, 'Aunt Crete's Emancipation', illustrates her narrative finesse and her ability to weave spirituality into everyday tales. Born in Wellsville, New York, to a Presbyterian minister father and a writer mother, Hill was immersed in literature and religious discipline from a young age. This upbringing significantly influenced her writing, which often features didactic themes and virtuous heroines facing moral dilemmas. Hill's work belongs to a literary tradition that underscores the virtues of faith, simplicity, and goodness in the face of a changing and often morally ambiguous American landscape. Starting her literary career with 'The Chautauquan' magazine, Hill swiftly transitioned to novels, gaining prominence with works such as 'The Enchanted Barn' and 'A Daily Rate'. Though her stories can be regarded as sentimental by modern standards, they offered her contemporaries an uplifting escape and conservative moral instruction, a hallmark of Hill's enduring legacy in Christian fiction. Grace Livingston Hill's extensive bibliography, including over 100 novels, remains a testament to her role as a foundational figure in the genre of inspirational fiction.
