Sobre IBD

Mary Cholmondeley (8 June 1859 - 15 July 1925) was an English novelist. Her bestselling novel, Red Pottage, satirised religious hypocrisy and the narrowness of country life. It was adapted as a silent film in 1918. Mary Cholmondeley began writing with serious intent in her teens. She wrote in her journal in 1877, 'What a pleasure and interest it would be to me in life to write books. I must strike out a line of some kind, and if I do not marry (for at best that is hardly likely, as I possess neither beauty nor charms) I should want some definite occupation, besides the home duties.' She succeeded initially in publishing some stories in The Graphic and elsewhere.
