Autorenporträt
Margaret Wilhelmina Wilson was an American novelist born on January 16, 1882, in Traer, Iowa. She is best known for her novel "The Able McLaughlins," which earned her the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1924. Wilson spent much of her life in the United States before moving to Droitwich Spa, United Kingdom, where she passed away on October 6, 1973, at the age of 91. Her literary works reflect her keen observations of human emotion and societal shifts, with a particular focus on family dynamics, war, and the effects of change on individuals and communities. She was married to George Douglas Turner in 1923, with their union lasting until her death. Wilson's writing, though not as widely recognized today, left a mark on the literary landscape, and her work continues to be appreciated for its deep emotional resonance and historical insight. Raised in a small town, she was deeply influenced by rural life and the events of her time, which shaped the themes and characters in her novels.
