Autorenporträt
Prolific American writer Joseph Crosby Lincoln (1870 1944) was known for his short stories and novels that perfectly encapsulated New England culture. Lincoln was born in Brewster, Massachusetts, and lived most of his life on Cape Cod. His many creative works were inspired by this idyllic location. Lincoln became a well-known personality in American literature during the height of his writing career in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He wrote more than 40 books and many short tales, becoming well-known for his ability to combine romance, humour, and astute observations on human nature. His tales, which frequently took place in sleepy New England communities, struck a chord with readers because they provided a lovable and genuine depiction of ordinary life. Joseph C. Lincoln made a substantial contribution to the literary scene of his era with his captivating storytelling, even though he may not be as well-known today as some of his contemporaries. His depictions of humour, communal life, and the enduring attraction of New England landscapes are what make his works so beloved even today.
