Marie Corelli - 1900

"But," said the Cardinal half aloud, with the gentle dawning of a tender smile brightening the fine firm curve of his lips, -- "it is not the end! The end here, no doubt; -- but the beginning -- there!" He raised his eyes devoutly, and instinctively touched the silver crucifix hanging by its purple ribbon at his breast.

The orange-red glow of the sun encompassed him with fiery rings, as though it would fain consume his thin, black-garmented form after the fashion in which flames consumed the martyrs of old, -- the worn figures of mediaeval saints in their half-broken niches stared down upon him stonily, as though they would have said, -- "So we thought, -- even we! -- and for our thoughts and for our creed we suffered willingly, -- yet lo, we have come upon an age of the world in which the people know us not, -- or knowing, laugh us all to scorn."

The Echo of Silence

Louis H. Campbell - 1900

On July 4th 1898, Zebulon Montgomery's 19th birthday, he catches a glimpse of a petite strawberry blonde dressed in a peach colored gown with accompanying parasol.

That moment would change his life. Discover with him a letter based liaison that unfolds into a blossoming relationship with Gamine Galientotte. Through their written communication, captivated by imagery and language transcending words, see how they engage preconceived notions of what is right and proper. With a shocking discovery, they are able to reconcile their differences and concerns to initiate a marriage filled with wonder and delight. In the late Victorian era bursting with change yet fighting the unfamiliar, their romance will be tested in every way. This is the first of a trilogy that has precious value to any developing relationship.

Leonora

Gottfried August Bürger - 1900

The famous poem "Lenore" by Gottfried August Bürger, translated from German.

It is often considered one of the first gothic stories that deals with the theme of vampires (although that name isn't directly mentioned, but there is a character that returns from the grave).This dark poem is one of the earliest examples of gothic romance in poetry.
