by Mary Cholmondeley

Overview

Mary Cholmondeley (8 June 1859 � 15 July 1925) was an English novelist.

Her first novel was The Danvers Jewels (1887), a detective story that won her a small following. It was followed by Sir Charles Danvers (1889), Diana Tempest (1893) and A Devotee (1897).
The satirical Red Pottage (1899) was a bestseller on both sides of the Atlantic and continues to be reprinted occasionally. It satirizes religious hypocrisy and the narrowness of country life, and was denounced from a London pulpit as immoral. It was equally sensational because it "explored the issues of female sexuality and vocation, recurring topics in late-Victorian debates about the New Women."
Later works such as Moth and Rust (1902) and Notwithstanding (1913) were less successful. The Lowest Rung (1908) and The Romance of his Life (1921) were collections of stories.
