Marie Calloway is an American writer. Her first book, what purpose did i serve in your life?, was published by Tyrant Books and generated controversy.[1][2][3][4][5] Part of the volume recounts the author's romantic relationship with a married journalist who she dubbed "Adrien Brody", and is reportedly based on an actual relationship with a prominent American writer.[6] Daniel D'Addario of Salon said the article upon which the book was based "sent shockwaves through the publishing industry".[7]
Calloway's writing has been championed by writer Tao Lin, who originally published "Adrien Brody" in his online magazine Muumuu House, and is considered a staple of alternative literature.[1][8]
