Marie Corelli 1 May 1855 - 21 April 1924) was a British novelist. She enjoyed a period of great literary success from the publication of her first novel in 1886 until World War I. Corelli's novels sold more copies than the combined sales of popular contemporaries, including Arthur Conan Doyle, H. G.

She returned to Britain four years later in 1870. Mackay began her career as a musician, adopting the name Marie Corelli for her billing.

James Agate represented her as combining "the imagination of a Poe with the style of an Ouida and the mentality of a nursemaid

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."
