The works of the greatest author of the Victorian period, who outsold Kipling, Wells and Doyle put together and was beloved of figures as diverse as Gladstone, Churchill, and Queen Victoria herself. Enter the mesmerizing and controversial imagination of Marie Corelli, the bestselling Victorian author who captivated millions with her tales of forbidden love, supernatural intrigue, and biting social commentary—outshining even Dickens and Wilde in her heyday.

From the eerie psychological depths of The Murder of Delicia to the ghostly vengeance of The Strange Visitation of Josiah McNasson, Corelli’s stories pulse with dark glamour and unapologetic drama. Ziska: The Problem of a Wicked Soul weaves reincarnation and seduction in an Egyptian-themed thriller, while The Devil’s Motor delivers a Faustian parable of technology and damnation. Her sharp wit slices through high society in Jane: A Social Incident, and The Love of Long Ago & Other Stories showcases her flair for romantic and macabre twists. A literary rebel who defied critics and embraced the occult, Corelli was both adored and scorned—yet her influence echoes in modern gothic fiction, supernatural romance, and even early feminist themes.
