Sinopsis

In "The Passing of the Great Queen: A Tribute to the Noble Life of Victoria Regina," Marie Corelli offers a poignant and heartfelt reflection on the life and reign of Queen Victoria, who was a symbol of an era marked by profound change. Written in Corelli's signature lyrical style, the text intertwines personal anecdotes, historical context, and spiritual insights, capturing the emotional landscape of a nation in mourning. As a contemporary of Victoria, Corelli's work reflects literary influences of the late Victorian age, blending sentimentalism with a deep reverence for the past, indicative of Corelli's own penchant for romanticizing her subjects. Marie Corelli, a prolific author and a notable figure in Victorian literature, was known for her unconventional views on society, spirituality, and the role of women. Her admiration for Queen Victoria is evident throughout the text, as Corelli saw the Queen as a paragon of virtue and resilience during a time of upheaval. Corelli's own life experiences, from her struggles with acceptance in literary circles to her passionate advocacy for social causes, infuse her tribute with a unique blend of personal sentiment and national pride. This book is a compelling read for anyone interested in Victorian history, royal legacy, or Corelli'Äôs distinct literary voice. It serves as both a historical document and a moving homage, making it a vital addition to the library of those who appreciate the intricacies of human experience against the backdrop of societal evolution.

    I had a nightmare last night. I’d been crying out for help, but no one heard my silent screams. Growing up in the home of an absent father and an emotionally abusive mother, Tom Stewart was an easy mark for a predator. Conditioned for compliance and desperate for affirmation from authority figures, Tom falls prey to a decade of abuse by his Boy Scout leader.  The trauma of his stolen childhood follows him into the future, where he encounters more than his fair share of trials. Through a health crisis, broken relationships, and the tragic loss of a loved one, Tom clings to his unwavering faith. When a landmark lawsuit sets him on the long road to forgiveness and healing, Tom begins to see God’s purpose for his pain. Rather than retreating into bitterness, Tom faces his past, proving that even in the worst of circumstances, God can turn evil for good.  In his heartrending memoir, Tom delivers a message of hope in the face of unthinkable hurt.
