1877rif. FB993 /6BCream calf half binding with black boards. Black title plate with gilt title and banding on the spine. Ariadne written in 1877 Rare First Edition The Story of a Dream Ouida 1 January 1839 – 25 January 1908 was the pseudonym of the English novelist Maria Louise Ramé although she preferred to be known as Marie Louise de la Ramée. During her career Ouida wrote more than 40 novels as well as short stories children's books and essays. Moderately successful she lived a life of luxury entertaining many of the literary figures of the day. Under Two Flags one of her most famous novels described the British in Algeria. It expressed sympathy for the French colonists—with whom Ouida deeply identified—and to some extent the Arabs. The novel was adapted for the stage and was filmed six times. Her novel A Dog of Flanders is considered a children's classic in much of Asia. The American author Jack London cited her novel Signa as one of the reasons for his literary success. Her lavish lifestyle eventually led her to penury and her works were put up for auction to pay her debts. She died in Italy from pneumonia.

In her early period her novels were considered "racy" and "swashbuckling" a contrast to "the moralistic prose of early Victorian literature" Tom Steele and a hybrid of the sensationalism of the 1860s and the proto-adventure novels being published as part of the romanticisation of imperial expansion. Later her work was more typical of historical romance though she never stopped commenting on contemporary society. She also wrote several stories for children. Under Two Flags one of her most famous novels described the British in Algeria. It expressed sympathy for the French colonists called pieds noirs—with whom Ouida deeply identified—and to some extent the Arabs. The novel was adapted for the stage and was filmed six times.
