Maria Corelli "The Sorrows of Satan"

Language: Armenian Number of pages: 448 Cover: hardcover Size: 240x160 Year of publication: 2025 A young writer, Geoffrey Tempest, living in poverty and obscurity, inadvertently sells his soul to the Devil and receives everything he had ever dreamed of in return. Or—almost everything. The book was published in 1895 and became the biggest bestseller in the history of Victorian England. Although almost all critics noted the literary imperfections of the book, Oscar Wilde stood up in defense of the work, which is not surprising—Geoffrey Tempest’s path in the first part of the book closely mirrors the moral downfall of his own Dorian Gray.
