Sarah Pratt McLean Greene
Sarah Pratt McLean Greene (1856–1935) was an American author known for her regionalist fiction, which often depicted rural life in New England. Her most notable works include "Cape Cod Folks" (1881) and "Vesty of the Basins" (1892), which highlight the local dialects, customs, and social dynamics of the communities she portrayed. Greene's writing, often humorous and rich in detail, provided insight into the everyday lives of ordinary people. She was part of the local color movement, which sought to capture the distinct qualities of specific American regions.
