The Passing of the Great Queen is a novel written by British author Marie Corelli. The book tells the story of Queen Victoria’s death and the impact it had on the people of England. The novel begins with the news of the Queen’s death and follows the reactions of different characters, including politicians, members of the royal family, and ordinary citizens. The book also explores the Queen’s life and reign, her relationships with her family and advisors, and her impact on the country. Corelli’s writing style is vivid and emotional, capturing the grief and mourning that swept across England after Victoria’s passing. The Passing of the Great Queen is a historical fiction novel that offers a compelling look at a pivotal moment in British history.Strange, beautiful and pathetic is the picture given to our thoughts of the dead Majesty of England,--white and still, lying in her snowy death-robes with the first snowdrops of the year and lilies around her, and the golden Cross shining above her--that emblem of the Christian Faith which, in its simplest form, the Queen followed fervently without any faltering doubt or fear. The words of one of her favourite hymns were the daily echo of her own heart’s trust in the Divine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
