Synopsis

This book provides a profound examination of the complex and often tragic fate that befalls women who attain fame and fortune through intellectual pursuits. The author delves into the lives of several such women, including the protagonist Delicia, a celebrated novelist, to illustrate the challenges they face in a society that undervalues their contributions and prioritizes male dominance. The text explores the themes of love, marriage, gender inequality, and the sacrifices women make to achieve success in a world that often seeks to diminish them. Ultimately, this book offers a poignant reminder of the importance of recognizing and valuing the contributions of women in all spheres of life.

Biographie de l'auteur

Marie Corelli (1 May 1855 – 21 April 1924) was an English novelist and mystic. 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. Wells, and Rudyard Kipling, although critics often derided her work as "the favourite of the common multitude"
