Autor

Ouida, the pen name of Maria Louise Ramé, was a prolific English novelist known for her opulent romantic novels and children's stories during the latter half of the 19th century. Born on January 1, 1839, in Bury St. Edmunds, England, Ouida was reputed for her flamboyant lifestyle as much as her writing. She developed an unmistakable literary style characterized by melodramatic narratives and a compassionate outlook towards social issues including women's rights and animal welfare. Her work 'Folle-Farine' illustrates her narrative style, which engages with themes of passion, beauty, and the less privileged. With over 40 novels to her credit, Ouida's lavish tales often reflected her own indulgent life, yet they offered a critical look at the disparities of Victorian society. Despite falling into relative obscurity in modern times, Ouida's tales provided commentary on the aspirations and follies of the era, making her an important, if not entirely mainstream, figure within 19th-century English literature. Her work has been both critiqued for sentimental excess and praised for its daring social observation. But it is in the rich storytelling and timeless scrutiny of social norms that her literary legacy endures.
