Mary Helena Fortune: An Independent Fly in the webs of Victorian Society

Mary Helena Fortune (c.1833–1909) was a pioneer Australian crime fiction writer. At a time when marriage and domesticity still largely defined women's lives, and “Answers and Correspondence” in the Australian Journal in almost every issue included advice on proper behaviour for women whereby they were “expected to give birth, raise families and provide a moral, civilising influence, ” Fortune freely admitted in her autobiographical journalism to being self-supporting, without the benefit of spouse. She claimed that her tea tasted better when she remembers that she has “earned every penny of the money that bought it.“ It was an unusual for a Victorian woman. And as her memoirs and journalistic prose testify, Fortune was anything but usual. The story of her life, her writing, her husbands, sons and lovers is extraordinary, and was potentially dangerous for Fortune, given the hypocritical morals of the time. Thus, being fully aware of the webs the Victorian society set for independent flies, Fortune wrote under a pseudonym Waif Wander which shielded her, and protected her income from the audiences whose Victorian values she did not share. Her memoirs, partly fictionalised, a common Victorian genre, reveal an extraordinary woman and extraordinary times in Australian history.
