Through a blend of fictional narrative and philosophical discourse, Corelli scrutinizes the constructs of authority and dominance, weaving a tapestry of richly drawn characters embroiled in existential battles between the temporal and the eternal. The novel, imbued with Corelli's characteristic lyrical prose and spiritual overtones, reflects the Victorian fascination with mysticism and the quest for meaning amid the socio-political upheaval of the era.
