About the Author

Frances Hodgson Burnett (1849–1924) was an English-American author primarily known for her children's literature. Born in Cheetham, England, Burnett emigrated with her family to the United States in 1865, settling in Tennessee. She began her writing career in her late teens, contributing stories to magazines and literary publications. Burnett's fame primarily rests upon her classic novels such as 'The Secret Garden', 'A Little Princess', and 'Little Lord Fauntleroy'. Her works often explore themes of social class disparities, the healing power of nature, and the resilience of children. 'Seth' is a lesser-known novel in Burnett's oeuvre that showcases her range outside of the children's literary genre. Her narrative style is characterized by a blend of realism and romanticism, vivid characterizations, and a profound empathy for human struggles. Although not as widely recognized as her other novels, 'Seth' is a testament to Burnett's versatility and her keen observation of human emotions and societal norms. Throughout her career, her literary accomplishments garnered considerable acclaim, paving the way for future generations of female storytellers. Beyond her literary contributions, Burnett's personal life, with its own share of trials and triumphs, mirrors the complex narratives found within her works—an interweaving of sorrow, joy, and the indomitable strength of the human spirit.
