Autorenporträt

Carolyn Wells (1862-1942) was a prolific American writer with a predilection for poetry, humor, and mystery. Wells penned over 170 books during her lifetime, encompassing various genres, though she is principally remembered for her mystifying tales and her droll, parodic writings. Beyond her humorous renditions, such as 'The Rubáiyát of Bridge' (1909), an amusing parody inspired by Omar Khayyam's 'The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám', she distinguished herself in the early 20th-century literary scene with her acumen for detective fiction. Her notable works in this arena include the Fleming Stone Detective Stories and the Patty Fairfield series, which showcased her flair for constructing engaging whodunits coupled with the genteel ambiance of the era. Wells' literary style is marked by a blend of wit and whimsy. She adeptly concocted plots that captured the imagination of her readers, replete with subtle irony and lighthearted twists reflective of the societal mores and cultures of her time. Her contribution to the genre of mystery established her as a noteworthy figure in the constellation of early American female mystery writers.
