John Kendrick Bangs 
Rebellious Heroine [EPUB ebook] 

By the American author and satirist John Kendrick Bangs and the creator of modern Bangsian fantasy, the school of fantasy writing that sets the plot wholly or partially in the afterlife. The book is about a man writing a realist romance novel in which his main character (not coincidentally named Marguerite) is aware that she is being written about and is destined to be a part of a romance novel and fall in love with someone whom she detests. The heroine continually ruins the author’s plans by attempting to exert his will over her; she refuses to love anyone other than the one she loves. (Goodreads)
