Maria Gustafva Albertina Sandel (1870–1927) was a Swedish textile worker, writer, feminist, and social critic. Born in Stockholm, she was forced to leave school at the age of 12, and began to work to contribute to her family income. Despite her lack of formal education, she wrote articles for several journals, and later published her own novels. Often regarded as the Fredrika Bremer of the proletariat, her works are social commentary, especially on the conditions of working-class women.
