The Sorrows of Satan by Marie Corelli is often called the first modern bestseller—a dazzling novel of temptation, ambition, and the eternal struggle between wealth and morality.
When struggling writer Geoffrey Tempest unexpectedly inherits a fortune, his life transforms overnight. Fame, luxury, and influence are suddenly his—along with the company of the mysterious Prince Lucio Rimânez, whose charm and power conceal a terrifying secret. But as Geoffrey rises in society, he must confront the true cost of success and the dark forces that lurk behind his newfound fortune.
Corelli's tale is more than just Gothic intrigue—it's a biting critique of materialism, corruption, and the moral compromises of the modern world. First published in 1895, it shocked Victorian society and captured the imagination of readers worldwide, blending supernatural suspense with sharp social commentary.
