From the appearance of her first novel A Romance of Two Worlds in 1886, Marie Corelli became the bestselling fiction-writer in England, her works largely concerned with Christianity, reincarnation, astral projection and mysticism.
Sales of Corelli's novels exceeded the combined sales of popular contemporaries, including Arthur Conan Doyle, H. G. Wells, and Rudyard Kipling, critics often derided her work as "the favourite of the common multitude".
Her works were collected by Winston Churchill, Randolph Churchill, and members of the British Royal Family, among others.
