Branded, Or, The Daughters Of A Convict

Autor

Gerald Biss (1876-1922) was an English author known for his contributions to early 20th-century literature, often delving into themes that intertwined crime, aristocracy, and social commentary. Best remembered for his novel 'Branded, or, The Daughters of a Convict,' Biss portrayed the struggles and stigma faced by families of convicts, offering a compelling narrative that critiqued contemporary social attitudes. 'Branded' reflects Biss's interest in the consequences of one's lineage on their fate and social status, a recurring motif in his literary works. His storytelling was characterized by a blend of suspense and a deep understanding of the human condition, which resonated well with his Edwardian audience. Although not as renowned as his peers, Biss's work provides valuable insight into the social fabric and prevailing narratives of his time. His oeuvre, which includes a number of other novels and literary pieces, remains a subject of interest for scholars studying the evolution of crime fiction and societal norms depicted in early 20th-century British literature.
