Grace Metalious was an American novelist whose best-known work, Peyton Place (1956), became one of the twentieth century’s biggest best-sellers and a cultural phenomenon. Born in Manchester, New Hampshire, into poverty, she wrote from a young age and only began her literary career in earnest after settling in Durham and Gilmanton, towns that inspired the setting of her novel. Peyton Place exposed the secrets and contradictions of a small inland town—subjects then deemed scandalous—and provoked polarized reactions: dismissed by the mainstream critics, it achieved massive popular success, was adapted for film and television, and became a touchstone for portrayals of social hypocrisy in closed communities. Although she continued to publish other novels that sold reasonably well—among them Return to Peyton Place (1959)—Metalious never matched the impact of her debut. Her personal life was marked by financial hardship and health problems; she died in 1964 at the age of 39. Metalious’s legacy endures in her work’s willingness to confront social taboos and in its influence on later depictions of life in small American towns.
