Tungkol sa may-akda
Anna Katharine Green (1846–1935) was a pioneering figure in the American detective fiction genre, predating Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes by a decade. Her narratives are often characterized by strong plot construction, legal expertise, and the clever piecing together of clues, which shaped the foundation for future detective stories. Green's first and most famous novel, 'The Leavenworth Case' (1878), was hailed for its well-crafted plot and engaging mystery, setting a high standard for the genre. 'A Strange Disappearance' (1880) is another notable work in her oeuvre, showcasing her adeptness at creating suspense and her ability to weave intricate narratives. Green's literary style is marked by a detailed attention to the procedures and mannerisms of the legal and law enforcement communities of her time. Though not as widely known today, she was a best-selling author in her era and exercised significant influence on later writers in the genre, such as Agatha Christie. Green also broke gender barriers, establishing herself in a traditionally male-dominated field with her intellect and writing skill commanding the respect of the literary community of her day.
