Book Description | Today I believe that the truth was a mixture of all of this. I was given a rare gift at birth: an overwhelming presence or what is known as charisma. I was cheerful, friendly, and I had a great ease in attracting and influencing others, no matter how important they were; thanks to the power of my speech and my voice, which my concubines described as melodious. My tall stature had an imposing quality no less than that suggested by my speech, and I had learned to do my best to appear as if I had been given supernatural powers that ordinary people could not access. Dr. Zahi Hawass chose the technique of polyphony as a tool for writing his first novels, and he really excelled in using it; each character speaks in his own tongue and does not exceed the limits of his knowledge or the nature of his language or even perform an activity beyond his physical capabilities. He has proven his skill in tracking characters and capturing time, so that the reader can see the white limestone dust above the wheat-coloured bodies building that great pyramid, and hear the clanging of the Pharaoh’s battles against his enemies, and the spring breezes between the corridors of the Pharaonic palace. |
