Description

The Sorrows of Satan - Marie Corelli ( or Strange experience of one Geoffrey Tempest, Millionaire) Hardback Book 1896 13th Edition - Methuen Dramatic, Faustian novel in which a destitute writer, Geoffrey Tempest, suddenly receives immense wealth and the friendship of a mysterious aristocrat—Lucio Rimânez—who is eventually revealed to be Satan in human form. As Tempest rises in society, he is drawn into moral corruption, vanity, and spiritual blindness, while Lucio’s melancholy presence hints at the deep suffering of a fallen angel longing for redemption. Blending social criticism with supernatural elements, the novel explores temptation, pride, and the emptiness of worldly success.

  1. Great item. Well packaged, exactly as described, with the addition of a protective cover which is appreciated!. A good price and a good clean copy. Postage fair and surprisingly reliable given it was Evri!! No issues. All in all very happy as this adds to our own history and the dropping of propaganda over occupied Europe '43-'44. Thanks for a smooth transaction. Would buy again and recommend. A+++

  2. Items arrived safely. Well packed and in good condition. Have I been entered for a prize draw? There is what looks like a raffle ticket included in the package. What is the prize? Trader very good about the price, my offer was accepted straight away so, I saved £10. As to delivery dates I am not sure when it was meant to arrive so I cannot say whether the parcel arrived on time or not.
