Mary Macgregor

    La obra de esta autora profundiza en la intersección del pensamiento religioso y la conciencia social, con el objetivo de mejorar la vida de los pobres y los no educados. Sus narrativas exploran a menudo las tensiones que surgen entre los colonos escoceses e irlandeses, y los profundos efectos de la educación y la urbanización en la sociedad rural. Adoptó un seudónimo para distinguir su identidad literaria de la de otra escritora. Como colaboradora del renacimiento de la escritura de mujeres canadienses, su voz se agrupa junto a otras autoras significativas de su época.
