Ella Wheeler Wilcox (November 5, 1850 – October 30, 1919) was an American author and poet whose literary works were imbued with an optimistic thread of philosophy. Born in Johnstown, Wisconsin, Wilcox started writing poetry from a young age. Her publication in the New York Sun of the popular poem 'Solitude'—which opens with the often-quoted line 'Laugh, and the world laughs with you; weep, and you weep alone'—established her fame. Wilcox was a prolific writer; over her career, she penned numerous books of poetry as well as works of prose. In 'Three Women', Wilcox explores the emotional and social challenges faced by women, showcasing her characteristic empathy and bold understanding of the interpersonal dynamics within society. Wilcox's poetic style is marked by its use of plain language, rhythm, and an emphasis on sentimentality and positivism—a stark contrast to the modernist movement that characterised the early 20th-century literary landscape in which she worked. Her writings provided solace and inspiration to a broad readership seeking uplifting messages amidst the trials of life. Despite critical ambivalence, Ella Wheeler Wilcox's appeal as a writer has been her capacity to resonate with the common person's experiences and hopes, a quality that ensures she retains a unique place in American literary history.
