«O Romance da Múmia» is the romantic novel by Théophile Gautier, published by Zéfiro in paperback (222 pages, in Portuguese).
The pharaoh, returning from Ethiopia, is fascinated by Tahoser, daughter of the high priest, but she falls in love with Poeri, a young exiled Hebrew. In the present, an English lord finds the papyrus of her story in an inviolate tomb in the Valley of the Kings, where a woman seems still to retain life after more than thirty centuries.
It belongs to the Clássicos Zéfiro collection; it is Luís Filipe Sarmento's translation of the original «Le Roman de la Momie» (1858).
For readers of nineteenth-century classics and of romance and mystery stories set in Ancient Egypt.
Pierre Jules Théophile Gautier was a French poet, dramatist, novelist, journalist, and art and literary critic.
