À propos de l'auteur
Grace Livingston Hill (1865–1947) was a prolific American author known for her inspirational novels, which blended Christian themes with domestic romance. Hill's narrative style often brought her characters through various trials and tribulations that ultimately led to spiritual awakening and moral redemption. Born in Wellsville, New York, Hill was the daughter of a Presbyterian minister. This background undoubtedly influenced her writing, as did her education at the Houghton Seminary in Clinton, New York. Hill's early works were published in the late 19th century, but it was in the early 20th century that she gained widespread acclaim, eventually authoring over 100 novels and numerous short stories. 'The Tale of Miranda' is just one example of Hill's extensive bibliography. Her stories commonly featured strong, virtuous women who triumph over adversity and find true love, all while maintaining their moral compass. Through her writing, Hill sought to provide both entertainment and moral guidance to her readers, a literary mission that has left a lasting legacy on Christian fiction. While less read today, her works remain an interesting reflection of early 20th-century American religiosity and societal norms.
