Anna Sewell était une femme d'une profonde compassion, dont l'amour de toute une vie pour les chevaux et le désir d'un meilleur traitement pour eux ont abouti à l'histoire animale la plus célèbre du dix-neuvième siècle. Élevée dans une famille quaker stricte, elle s'est vu inculquer des valeurs d'autosuffisance, de responsabilité morale et de 'tendre considération pour les Créatures de Dieu'. Son œuvre, rédigée au milieu de problèmes de santé chroniques, s'impose comme un récit magistral raconté du point de vue d'un cheval. Ce conte poignant met non seulement en lumière la cruauté de la possession, mais célèbre également l'esprit de résilience des animaux, soulignant l'importance de la gentillesse et de la compréhension dans le lien homme-animal.
