Rosina Bulwer Lytton (1802-1882, née Wheeler, daughter of Anna Doyle Wheeler) wrote eleven novels, a collection of essays and her memoir, entitled A Blighted Life (1880). She married Edward Bulwer-Lytton, a novelist and prominent politician, in 1827, although they separated in 1836; Edward denounced Rosina as 'mad' and had her confined to a lunatic asylum. Rosina made Louisa Devey her executrix and left to her by will all her papers, including correspondence between her and her husband.
