In ancient Egypt dominated by the Hyksos, Sekenenre's rebellion ends with his death and his family must flee to Nubia. Ten years later, his grandson Ahmose returns in secret with a safe-conduct from Apophis, the invading king, to recruit an army; but love and vengeance cross his political plans.
Includes a prologue by Ramón Sánchez Lizarralde and is number 88 in the Millenium collection.
For readers of historical novels set in pharaonic Egypt and for those who want to approach Naguib Mahfuz.
Naguib Mahfouz Abdelaziz Ibrahim Ahmed Al-Basha was an Egyptian writer who won the 1988 Nobel Prize in Literature. In awarding the prize, the Swedish Academy described him as a writer "who, through works rich in nuance – now clear-sightedly realistic, now evocatively ambiguous – has formed an Egyptian narrative art that applies to all mankind".
