THE TREASURE OF HEAVEN
A Romance of Riches
By MARIE CORELLI
With Photogravure Portrait of the Author
Claudius Clear says in the British Weekly:—“It seems to me to be the best and healthiest of all Miss Corelli’s books. She is carried along for the greater part of the tale by a current of pure and high feeling, and she reads a most wholesome lesson to a generation much tempted to cynicism—the eternal lesson that love is the prize and the wealth of life.... The story is full of life from beginning to end ... it will rank high among the author’s works alike in merit and popularity.”
The Standard says:—“Miss Corelli gives a brisk, indeed, a passionate tale of loneliness in search of love, of misery seeking solace, of the quest of a multi-millionaire for friendship that is disinterested and affection that has no purchase price. It is distinctly good to find a preacher with so great a congregation lifting up her voice against the selfishness of the time, and urging upon us all the divinity of faith, charity, and loving-kindness.”
The World and His Wife says:—“It is a pleasant and absorbing romance, brimful of varied incident, and written with the alternate vigour and quieter charm that are the secrets of Miss Corelli’s phenomenal popularity.”
The Bookman says:—“I am going to praise it because I have found it worth my money. It fulfils the first and most urgent duty of a novel in having a good story to tell and telling it interestingly.”
