This classic novel by Marie Corelli depicts a passionate affair that ignites a dark flame of love that has gone bad. The story centers on Ziska, a mystery Egyptian woman who is sort of a reincarnation of an old Egyptian woman who was murdered by her boyfriend when he became bored of her. A group of aristocratic English tourists is entranced and seduced by Ziska, whose remarkable likeness to an ancient Egyptian woman prompts a flurry of swirling rumors and ideas about who and what she may actually be. One specific visitor, a well-known painter, grows torridly attracted to the woman, which has ancient ramifications and throws a shadow over him and his fixation, bringing about a fated conclusion that has been brewing for thousands of years. Along the way, a visiting scholar with interests makes the claim that Ziska's life and the lives of the obsessive, love-sick tourists are both imprisoned in enormous mysteries involving reincarnation, past incarnations, eternal love, and the struggle between good and evil. To know the complete story, readers should read this book as it can be a thrilling story!

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.

Das zweite ist eine Notiz eines Anwalts, in der detailliert beschrieben wird, dass er ein Vermögen von einem verstorbenen Verwandten geerbt hat. Das dritte ist ein Empfehlungsschreiben eines ausländischen Aristokraten namens Lucio, der sich mit ihm anfreundet und weiterhin sein Führer ist, wie er seinen neu gewonnenen Reichtum am besten einsetzt.
