Sinopsis
Set in Thebes - the religious heart of Egypt - during the reign of Ramesses II, the story follows the life of Nebetiunet (known as Nebet), her sons and daughters and her friends and neighbours. When Nebet was orphaned at the age of ten, she was taken into the household of her Uncle Nebneteru in Thebes and was established as an apprentice seamstress in the linen workshop of the great Temple of Amen-Ra. She later married a young scribe, Amenmose, and had six children in the first nine years of her marriage. When her children were old enough to be left in the care of the household servants Nebet returned to her career in the temple, where she was promoted to the post of Mistress of the Divine Wardrobe, in charge of making and maintaining the sacred vestment and temple linens. Nebet is also a Chantress, a singer in the choir at the Temple of Asheru. The family are involved in numerous festivals, marriages, a harvest, and a funeral before their world is disturbed by preparation for war with the Hittites. This delightful and authentic tale is not to be missed by any reader with an interest in history or ancient Egypt.

Cloth. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. First Edition. Following the experiences of Nebetiunet, an Egyptian mother and wife living in the holy city of Waset (Thebes) during the fifth year of the reign of Ramesses II, this book offers a fascinating insight into a year in her busy and remarkable life. With a household to run, servants to manage, a husband and family to care for, and a highly responsible job to do, Nebetiunet's hardworking life is never without incident. Often, she finds herself dealing with family problems alone when her husband's work keeps him from the family home for long periods of time, forcing her to make decisions independently, strengthening her already resilient character. From the inundation of the Nile at the start of the year, through the winter and summer months, we share in the many highs and lows encompassing birth, death, marriage, war, work and education, all experienced by Nebetiunet and her family and friends. Described in vivid and accurate detail, this book provides an absorbing fictional account of a year in the life of an exceptional woman in ancient Egypt. Nº de ref. del artículo: 022805
