Mary Hunter Austin Libri

    Mary Hunter Austin fu una prolifica romanziera, poetessa, critica e drammaturga, oltre che una delle prime femministe, ambientaliste e difensore dei diritti e della cultura dei nativi americani e degli ispanoamericani. Come una delle prime scrittrici naturaliste del sud-ovest americano, la sua opera approfondì la fauna, la flora e le popolazioni del paesaggio aspro tra le montagne della Sierra Nevada e il deserto del Mojave. La sua scrittura era profondamente radicata in anni di acuta osservazione e un impegno appassionato per la conservazione delle culture e dei paesaggi locali, distinguendola come una voce unica nella letteratura americana.
