Autorenporträt
Florence Ethel Mills Young was an English author born in 1875 in Twickenham, Middlesex, who wrote over 50 books between 1910 and 1941. Known for her popular fiction, Young's early works often focused on the experiences of the English in southern Africa. She skillfully depicted the complexities of life in this region, particularly in relation to colonialism and the tensions surrounding cultural and racial divides. One of her notable works, Myles Calthrope I. D. B., was adapted into the 1920 film Thou Art the Man. Young's novel A Mistaken Marriage (1908) reflected the prejudices of the time, featuring negative portrayals of Jewish characters involved in illegal activities like diamond selling. Her writing style, characterized by remarkable fluency and a firm grasp on plot development, was praised in various literary circles, including The Spectator, which highlighted her 1914 work The Purple Mists for its depiction of a "strong, silent man." In addition to her novels, at least one of Young's works was translated into German, further demonstrating her international appeal.
