Description

Norman Mailer's Ancient Evenings is a rich and evocative novel that breathes life into ancient Egypt. Set in the 18th-dynasty royal court, the story revolves around the complex relationships between Pharaoh Rameses, his wife Queen Nefertiti, and their creature Menenhetet.

Through exquisite gardens, majestic river landscapes, and the clash of battle, Mailer's reincarnated protagonist navigates a world of intimate and telepathic communion with gods and mortals alike. This novel is an extraordinary work of inventiveness that lingers in the mind long after the final page has been turned.
