De La Roche, Mazo

Born in Newmarket, Toronto, on Jan. 15, 1879; died in Toronto on July 12, 1961. Canadian author.

De la Roche graduated from the University of Toronto. Her novel Jalna (1927) was the first of a series of 16 novels about the Whiteoak family. The last novel in the series was Morning at Jalna (1960). The author’s interest was focused solely on family relationships—social problems scarcely perturb her characters. De la Roche also wrote the popular play The Whiteoaks (1935). In the autobiography Ringing the Changes (1957) contemporary capitalist and patriarchal forms of life are contrasted.
