Cleopatra

BOOK EXCERPT:

Cleopatra—a brave, astute, and charming woman who spoke many languages, entertained lavishly, hunted, went into battle, eliminated siblings to consolidate her power, and held off the threat of Imperial Rome to protect her country as long as she could—continues to fascinate centuries after she ruled Egypt. These wide-ranging essays explore such topics as Cleopatra’s controversial trip to Rome, her suicide by snake bite, and the afterlife of her love potions. They view Cleopatra from the Egyptian perspective, and examine the reception in Rome of Egyptian culture, especially of its religion and architecture. They discuss films about her, and consider what inspired Egyptomania in early modern art. Together, these essays illuminate Cleopatra’s legacy and illustrate how it has been used and reused through the centuries.

BOOK EXCERPT:

In this book, the main character will have to go through so many terrible situations in which she will find herself that the main ones, without a doubt, will be her incredible adventures that she had to endure not only in England, but also in Africa, Barbados, among the vastness of the Atlantic. The descriptions of love affairs and intimate scenes with the participation of our nymphomaniac, of course, bring zest and variety to the saga about the beautiful Angelina, but in this story, voluptuous moments did not happen to her as often as she would like.
