The mighty atom
by Corelli, Marie, 1855-1924

little lionel is an adorable little kid. hes smart and amiable and really does his best to please his father by being good and learning his lessons. but his father has engaged mr montrose as a tutor, and that was all wrong. you see, mr montrose is not only from scotland, which is bad enough, but hes also weird in that he believes in god. better dismiss him straight away. now what will happen to little lionel?

Holy orders : the tragedy of a quiet life
by Corelli, Marie, 1855-1924

this is an interesting story. it centers around the vicar of a little village in england, and his wife. she is not quite cut out to be the vicars wife, and while this is all ok when you are recently married and both still young, it becomes a tragedy over time.

The soul of Lilith
by Corelli, Marie, 1855-1924
The following story does not assume to be what is generally understood by a "novel". It is simply the account of a strange and daring experiment once actually attempted, and it is offered to those who are interested in the unseen "possibilities" of the Hereafter, merely for what it is - a single episode in the life of a man who voluntarily sacrificed his whole worldly career in a supreme effort to prove the apparently Unprovable.

the reverend john walden is doing well with his little village. all his parishioners are doing rather well and so is he, in his bachelor ways. but then miss Maryllia returns to the village from abroad and shakes up the entire parish and especially the reverend.
