Autoren-Porträt von Josephine Tey
Josephine Tey, a pseudonym for Elizabeth MacKintosh (1896-1952), was a distinguished Scottish author best known for her contributions to the mystery and historical fiction genres. Her work has garnered significant acclaim for its wit, psychological depth, and innovation in narrative structure. Tey's most acclaimed book, 'The Daughter of Time' (1951), is a unique detective novel that involves the posthumous rehabilitation of King Richard III. The protagonist, Inspector Alan Grant, solves historical puzzles from his hospital bed, showcasing Tey's ability to blend sleuthing with historical inquiry. Acclaimed by the British Crime Writers' Association as the greatest mystery novel of all time, it exemplifies Tey's nuanced approach to the genre. Her literary style is characterized by tight plotting, well-rounded characters, and an undercurrent of social commentary, which has earned her a respectful position among the luminaries of 20th-century British literature. Though her life was relatively private and her career brief, as she died at the young age of 55, Tey's work endures in its originality and influence on subsequent writers within the crime fiction field.
