First Edition. "The literary star known as “L.E.L.,” pen name of the British poet, novelist, and critic Letitia Elizabeth Landon (1802-1838), rose to prominence around 1824. But after her death in 1838 in Africa, her fame went into occultation, and her works were largely lost from public view until the last two decades. It is a tantalizing mystery, in many respects. Why, with her brief but impressive career, did Letitia Landon fade so quickly and utterly from the literary world? The story of L.E.L.’s life and work offers an object lesson in the power of cultural forces to create, and then destroy, an artistic reputation." [Francis J.
