The Sorrows of Satan
The action of the novel takes place in London in 1895. Satan walks among people in search of another toy to amuse himself with, to show God that he can corrupt anyone. He wants to find someone worthy who can...
resist temptation, which will be difficult because disbelief, corruption, and selling oneself reign all around.
Geoffrey Tempest, a young impoverished writer, struggles to make ends meet while unsuccessfully trying to sell his novel. Once again, as he contemplates his desperate situation, he notices three letters on the table. The first is from a friend in Australia who has become rich from gold mining, informing him that he is sending an acquaintance to Geoffrey who will help him escape poverty. The second is a note from a lawyer detailing that he has inherited a fortune from a deceased relative. The third is a recommendation letter from Prince Lucio Rimanez, the 'deliverer from poverty,' about whom his friend from Australia wrote. Will Geoffrey be able to make the right choice and preserve his talent and soul?..
'The Sorrows of Satan' is a mystical decadent novel by English writer Marie Corelli, published in 1895 and became the largest bestseller in the history of Victorian England.
The concise cover of the edition is illustrated by Natalia Portyanoy, and the decorations for the block are drawn by Yevgeniya Lukomskaya.
