Giới thiệu tác giả
Anna Buchan (1877–1948), who wrote under the pseudonym O. Douglas, was a respected Scottish author known for her evocative portrayal of domestic life and village communities in Scotland. Born in Peebles, she was the sister of the famous writer and politician John Buchan, author of 'The Thirty-Nine Steps'. Her literary style is characterized by its warmth, vivid characterizations, and insight into human nature, all crystallized through evocative rendering of her native Scottish landscapes and society. Not as widely known as her brother, Anna's work nonetheless resonates with a deep understanding of the human condition and the importance of home and community. Her complete works reveal an author dedicated to capturing the subtleties of the time in which she lived, marked by the two World Wars and changing social dynamics. These works also offer a rich tapestry of Scottish identity and culture, which she celebrated and preserved through her writing. Buchan's fiction, while often drawn from her own experiences, still resonates with readers who appreciate the charm and gentility of a past era. Her novels, including 'Olivia in India', 'The Setons', and 'Penny Plain', often intertwine themes of love, duty, and social change, embodying the humanistic current that encompasses early twentieth-century Scottish literature.
