लेखकको बारेमा

Dorothy Kathleen Broster, commonly known as D. K. Broster (1877–1950), was a British novelist and short-story writer, notably remembered for her historical romances set around the Jacobite risings. Born in Liverpool, Broster served as a Red Cross nurse in France during World War I, experiences which influenced her subsequent writing. Post-war, she embarked on a writing career that produced more than a dozen novels and numerous short stories. She is best recognized for her trilogy of Jacobite-themed works, 'The Flight of the Heron' (1925), 'The Gleam in the North' (1927), and 'The Dark Mile' (1929), which together relate a stirring tale of adventure amid the backdrop of 18th century Scotland. 'The Dark Mile', in particular, reveals Broster's flair for suspense and character development as it follows the hero, Ewen Cameron, through a landscape rich with historical detail and intrigue. Broster's literary style is characterized by meticulous research, evocative description, and a capacity to bring the past vividly to life, qualities that have endeared her to lovers of historical fiction. Though her name may not feature prominently in modern literary discourse, her contributions to the genre continue to be respected by academics and readers with an affinity for the romance and tumult of bygone eras.
