Elizabeth Robins

    Elizabeth Robins fu un'attrice, drammaturga, romanziera e suffragetta le cui opere letterarie offrirono una penetrante critica femminista, in parte informata dal realismo psicologico di Ibsen. Ottenne fama per un celebre romanzo che esplorava temi del suffragio femminile, che poi adattò in un'opera teatrale pionieristica. Quest'opera drammatica fu la prima a portare la politica di strada del movimento delle suffragette sul palcoscenico, scatenando un'ondata di produzioni teatrali simili. Le esperienze di Robins nella ricerca del fratello scomparso in Alaska fornirono anche l'ispirazione per romanzi che approfondiscono temi di perdita e scoperta nella natura selvaggia.
