About the author

Maria Edgeworth

1767–1849

A sharp, lively pioneer of both the regional novel and children’s literature, she wrote stories that mixed social comedy with close observation of everyday life. Best known for works like "Castle Rackrent" and "Belinda," she helped shape the modern novel while writing with unusual clarity about class, family, and education.
