Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sorrows of Satan (1895) is a masterpiece by Corelli's and it is a novel where her perspectives on society and religion are showcased the most clearly. What's more, is that it serves as a savage retort to her critics, who had criticized her past novel, Barabbas (1893). The novel's first pages are astonishingly gripping. Geoffrey Tempest, the narrator, draws his experience of destitution - misery that denies one of one's respect, as hunger transforms even the noblest person into a wrecked creature. As his last desire to make ends meet through journalism fails, Geoffrey is very close to ending it all when he gets a startling message from a Prince Lucio Rimânez. London, 1895, and Satan is at large. He is looking for somebody ethically strong enough to be able to withstand temptation, yet his chances at success seem bleak. Britain is a city of the corrupt. The aristocracy is monetarily and spiritually bankrupt; church pioneers no longer have any confidence in God; Victorian idealism has been ousted from writing and life; and sexual morality is being sabotaged by the vindictive principles of the 'New Woman'. Everything and everybody can be purchased, and it takes an extraordinarily high moral courage to oppose Satan's temptations.

Download or read book The Sorrows of Satan written by Marie Corelli and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sorrows of Satan is a 1895 faustian novel by Marie Corelli. It is broadly viewed as one of the world's first successes, somewhat because of a disturbance in the framework British libraries used to buy their books and mostly because of its well known allure. Entirely denounced by pundits for Corelli's moralistic and trite style it in any case had solid allies in Oscar Wilde and different individuals from sovereignty. Generally disregarded in abstract circles, it is progressively viewed as a persuasive balance de siècle text. The book is sometimes captioned "Or the Strange Experience of one Geoffrey Tempest, Millionaire".
