Description

In 1936 an ancient tomb was discovered on the outskirts of Rome. Its contents would be analyzed, cataloged and then destroyed. A photograph and a well-preseverved group of Latin, papyrus texts were all that were secretly spared. Smuggled out of fascist Italy and translated by Dr. Morgan Rutherford Ashley and Phillip Reginald Marsche, The Eunuch Neferu conveys the tale of a young man who would rise from slavery to the heights of Roman-Egyptian aristocracy.

Marsche conveys an enthralling, historical fiction tale with The Eunuch Neferu. Upon the canvass of Roman-occupied Egypt in 23 B.C., this literary tapestry is woven using a rich and enchanting combination of history and human emotion. Controversial and thought provoking, The Eunuch Neferu chronicles the life of a boy who would rise from desert poverty to aristocracy in ancient Alexandria. Illustrating both the power and delicacy of the human spirit, this book is about desire, drive, choices and consequences. Take a look at 23 B.C. through the eyes of Kebryn - peasant, servant, student, nobleman - and discover one of history’s most alluring, enigmatic characters
