Författare: Florence Warden

Stöd
Florence Warden, the pen name of Florence Alice Price, née James (1857–1929), was a noted English novelist who earned her literary reputation through an adept blend of mystery and romance. She penned a copious number of novels during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, prominent among them is ”The Wharf by the Docks” – a work that highlights her quintessential narrative style and deft hand at suspense. Warden”s oeuvre adeptly encompassed depictions of contemporary domestic life as well as explorations into crime and society”s darker undercurrents. Her works often carried an air of intrigue and provided a critical lens on the attitudes and mores of her era. Warden”s ability to weave compelling stories with well-crafted characters made her one of the popular authors of her time. ”The Wharf by the Docks”, while not as widely remembered today, is a testament to the storytelling prowess that made Warden a widely read and respected author in the English literary canon. Her stories continue to be of interest to scholars examining the evolution of the mystery and romance genres and their intersection during a transformative period in British literary history.
