S. Wörishöffer

    Sophie Wörishöffer, sometimes referred to as the "Karl May of Altona," was an author whose early works included short stories and serial novels for periodicals. Facing personal hardship that left her destitute, she turned to writing full-time to support herself and her son. Her skill in reworking and expanding children's books, such as the successful "Robert des Schiffsjungen Fahrten und Abenteuer auf der deutschen Handels- und Kriegsflotte," brought her recognition. Her narrative style and thematic focus, shaped by her experiences, resonated with readers, securing her place among popular contemporary writers.
