Sheila KayeSmith

    Sheila Kaye-Smith se proslavila svými romány, které se zpočátku zaměřovaly na život na venkově v Sussexu a Kentu, s tématy jako farmaření, dědictví půdy a měnící se role žen. Později se její tvorba stočila k náboženským tématům a jejímu konvertování ke katolicismu. Byla také vášnivou badatelkou díla Jane Austenové, s níž úzce spolupracovala.
