Über den Autor

Frances Hodgson Burnett wrote for children and adults, publishing both plays and novels. She was born in Manchester, England, on November 24, 1849. Her father, who owned a furniture store, died when she was only four years old. Her mother struggled to keep the family business running while trying mehr anzeigen to raise five children. Finally, because of the failing Manchester economy, the family sold the store and immigrated to the United States. In 1865 they settled just outside of Knoxville, Tennessee. Hoping to offset her family's continuing financial troubles, Burnett began to submit her stories to women's magazines. She was immediately successful. In the late 1860s her stories were published in nearly every popular American magazine. Burnett helped to support her family with income from the sale of her stories, even saving enough to finance a trip back to England, where she stayed for over a year. In 1879, Burnett published her first stories for children; two of her most popular are A Little Princess and The Secret Garden. In contrast to an extremely successful career, Burnett's personal life held many challenges. Her son Lionel was diagnosed with tuberculosis at age 15, from which he never recovered. His death inspired several stories about dead or dying children. Burnett lived her later years on Long Island, New York. She died in 1924. (Bowker Author Biography) weniger anzeigen

Das Buch ist ziemlich bildhaft geschrieben, ganz nett und einigermaßen glaubwürdig. Kindgerecht, nicht besonders mitreißend, fand ich.

Zunächst war ich beim Lesen etwas befangen - die Identifikation mit einer von anderen als hässlich, selbstsüchtig, unerzogen, kränklich und arroganten Heldin (Mistress Mary - quite contrary) fiel doch schwer. Doch trotz aller Klischees (der verschrobene Lord, der naturverbundene Dorfjunge, die arme, aber glückliche, kinderreiche Familie, dagegen das steife Leben im Herrenhaus - Erlösung finden alle schließlich durch das Überwinden der Klassenschranken) ist es eine immer noch anrührende Geschichte, die sogar vorstellbar ist: wie Außenseiter über ein gemeinsames Interesse, den geheimen Garten zu pflegen, zueinander finden.
