Margaret Wade Campbell Deland (1857-1945) was an American author, known for her works of fiction, short stories, poetry, and her two-volume autobiography. Born in Pennsylvania, Deland became an important figure in American literature, particularly within the literary realism movement. Her writing often centered around the intricacies of domestic life, human relationships, and the social constraints of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. She was particularly interested in the roles and struggles of women, which was a major theme in many of her works. Deland's novels are known for their psychological depth and their exploration of the challenges faced by individuals within the context of societal norms. Her most notable works include The Awakening of Helena Richie (1906), The Way to Peace (1910), The Iron Woman (1911), and The Voice (1912). Throughout her career, Deland's stories reflected her keen observations of the emotional and moral dilemmas faced by her characters, particularly women navigating complex family and social expectations.
