Sarah Tytler

    Henrietta Keddie, writing as Sarah Tytler, was a Scottish author celebrated for her realistic portrayals of domestic life. Her novels, particularly popular with female readers, often featured 18th-century settings and explored themes of social division with keen perception. Tytler excelled at crafting original and sympathetic characters, and her work sometimes focused on urban Scottish settings, diverging from traditional rural realism.
