IMO D.

Only D places the extremely long modifier correctly to modify the author

Please answer some couple of doubts:

1) "that" won is incorrect bcoz "that" can not refer to people ??
2) In D, the structure is : I, II

A novelist subordinate clause(I), Selma became.....(II)

well i don't know which form is this...

if it would have been "As novelist " instead of "A novelist "
the Ist one would have been dependant clause.

Please clarify which form is used by D?
