About the author

M. L. Hope appears in Canadian literary archives as a Canadian poet, and is also known as the author of Indian and Other Tales, a collection that was later preserved by Project Gutenberg.

Very little biographical information seems to be widely available online, which gives the work an added air of mystery. Based on the sources I could confirm, Hope is best approached through the writing itself: verse preserved in Canadian poetry resources and fiction that reflects the settings, interests, and literary style of the early 1900s.

For listeners who enjoy rediscovered authors, Hope offers that special feeling of finding a voice that has mostly slipped out of the spotlight but still has something vivid to share.
