In her writings, Mrs. Carlen (1809-1892) exhibited a versatility
which may be considered remarkable. While in one book she revelled
in descriptions of home-scenes and characters, in another she
presented her readers with events and incidents that bore a strong
resemblance to the startling and melodramatic productions of many
of the romance writers of France. This peculiarity, however, may be
accounted for by the fact that she wrote - as she herself confessed
- entirely from impulse. When her mind was clouded by sorrow - and
she had been oppressed with many bitter griefs - she sought to
remove the cause of her despondency by creating a hero or heroine,
afflicted like herself, and following this individual through a
train of circumstances which, she imagined, would naturally occur
during a life of continued gloom and sorrow. On the other hand,
when life appeared bright and beautiful to her, then she told a
tale of joy; a story of domestic life, for where does pure
happiness exist except at the fireside at home It must have been
during one of these bright intervals of her life that Mrs.
description of the delights of home, which, although occasionally
obscured by grief, and in some instances, by folly, are rendered
still more precious by their brief absence. This is translated from
the original Swedish by Elbert Perce.
