5.0 out of 5 stars
Sequel to "A Romance of Two Worlds.",
By Queen of Cups (NYC, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ardath: The Story of a Dead Self (Paperback)
This is a baroque tale of a hero in love with a supernal angel but not yet worthy of union with her. It travels back in time 7000 years to a sweepingly fantastic world, undergoing transformative adventures. It's said that Corelli liked this book more than any of her others but it sold the least copies. Her publisher thought that it might have been "over the heads of the public." I must admit, it is wonderfully strange and hard to follow at times, but I kept reading because she is such a thoroughly original voice. I personally love her weirdness and this book has to be the weirdest one of them all!

Marie Corelli is not easy reading, but I love her. She writes from another time in history (late 1800's?). There is Christian imagery, but lots of spirituality of the immortal invisible kind. The kind dreamed about by the English poets of the lakes. Her stories really tap into romance in the invisible realms which really appeals to me since "your love" will love you unconditionally without prblems! Incredibly idealistic and somewhat naive, I know, but I'm happy and I love my dreams!
