C. A. (Caroline Augusta) Frazer

Caroline Augusta Frazer is an obscure author whose surviving published work is best represented online by Atmâ: A Romance. Project Gutenberg and other library catalogs identify her under the name C. A. Frazer or Caroline Augusta Frazer, and connect her with that novel.

Atmâ: A Romance was published in 1891 and presents a story shaped by spiritual and philosophical ideas drawn from India. The text itself signals that Frazer was interested in concepts that English translations only partly captured, which gives the book a distinctive voice among late 19th-century popular fiction.

Very little firmly documented biographical information about Frazer appears to be readily available in major public literary sources. What remains clear is that her writing has endured through preservation projects, allowing readers today to encounter a rare and curious novel from the period.
