اس ای بک کے بارے میں

Though it was originally published almost a century ago, Eleanor H. Porter's novel Mary Marie tackles an issue that is as relevant as ever: divorce and its impact on the children in the family that has been torn asunder. Groundbreaking at the time of its original publication, the novel tells the story of a young girl whose divorced parents can't agree on anything about child-rearing -- not even the name of their daughter! Will the doubly named protagonist be able to navigate this confusing situation and remain healthy and happy?
