Marie Corelli - The Mighty Atom

The Mighty Atom by Marie Corelli is the touching story of a brilliantly clever young boy's upbringing by a father who wants his son to reject all personal and religious ideas. He is a scientist who wants only to proliferate his own ideas, and the havoc it causes as the boy's life seems to fall apart. Corelli writes her story with deep insight into the psychology and the antithesis of the irrational belief in nothingness but atoms. She delineates the mind of the boy's father, his mother and teacher to be grasping at a reality that isn't there, so to speak. The story unfolds in innocent suspense but moves to a climax of shocking revelations.

Marie Corelli - The Sorrows of Satan

The Sorrows of Satan, by Marie Corelli, was the first modern bestseller and was influential in establishing some of the major trends in twentieth-century bestselling fiction. The setting is London, 1895, and the Devil is on the loose. He is searching for someone morally strong enough to resist temptation, but there seems little chance he will succeed. Britain is all but totally corrupt. The aristocracy is financially and spiritually bankrupt; church leaders no longer believe in God; Victorian idealism has been banished from literature and life; and sexual morality is being undermined by the pernicious doctrines of the "New Woman." Everything and everyone is up for sale, and it takes a special kind of moral courage to resist the Devil's seductions.
