"Readers can go at their own pace, rather than being force-fed some pre-determined amount of the book, as has been the practice of email book clubs."

Marie Corelli
(May 1, 1855 - April 21, 1924)

Mary Mackay began her career as a musician, adopting the name Marie Corelli for the stage. She gave up this pursuit in her 30s and published her first novel, "A Romance of Two Worlds." Despite her popularity, she was considered untalented and melodramatic as an author. Later in her career, she wrote many works attempting to reconcile Christianity with many metaphysical ideas such as reincarnation. Despite her notoriety during her lifetime, she is virtually unknown today.
