1841–1917
Best known for the strange and imaginative 1899 novel Arqtiq, this little-known American writer brought together Arctic adventure, utopian ideas, and early science fiction in a book that still feels unusual today. Her work has drawn modern interest for its bold mix of wonder, invention, and social imagination.
