Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach was an Austrian writer born in Moravia (now part of the Czech Republic) and died in Vienna.
She is considered one of the most important German-language authors of the late 19th century, particularly noted for her psychological novels.
Ebner-Eschenbach came from an aristocratic background, holding the title of Baroness.
Her writing is characterized by high-quality language, often described as beautiful and dance-like with words.
She is also known for creating aphorisms, including the famous "even a stopped clock is right twice a day." Her work, including "Krambambuli," continues to be studied and appreciated for its literary merit and insight into human nature.
