Abstract: The article presents the novel Den farlige Alder (1910) by a forsaken Danish woman writer, Karin Michaëlis. Its worldwide popularity was unprecedented and made its author in no time into a star. Her odd career, from literary scandalist to bland children’s author, lasted almost 20 years. After the World War II her works ceased to be reprinted and she was shortly forgotten even in Denmark. By pointing out the most important stages of The Dangerous Ages’s reception in Poland, the article proposes to ponder over the mechanisms behind the making of feminist bestsellers.
