The Sorrows of Satan became one of the greatest literary sensations of its time. Within just a few months of its publication in 1895, tens of thousands of copies were sold, and the novel’s popularity even surpassed that of Dracula. Gifted yet impoverished writer Geoffrey Tempest unexpectedly inherits a vast fortune and gains a powerful patron - the mysterious Prince Lucio Rimânez. Wealth, fame, and influence suddenly fall into Geoffrey’s hands. Yet with success comes something darker: he gradually begins to lose not only his talent, but also himself. What will he choose - riches or genius? And who truly hides behind the charming face of his new companion?
