Anne Thackeray Ritchie Livres
Anne Isabella Ritchie était une écrivaine anglaise et une figure centrale de la scène littéraire victorienne tardive. Ses romans, très appréciés à son époque, sont peut-être aujourd'hui surtout connus pour avoir replacé des récits de contes de fées traditionnels dans un cadre victorien. Elle est également reconnue pour son rôle de gardienne de l'héritage littéraire de son père. La voix distinctive de Ritchie a apporté une perspective unique à la narration classique, faisant résonner son œuvre auprès des lecteurs.
