Translated by Clara Bell
A historical novel written in the late 19th century. Set in ancient Alexandria, the narrative delves into the lives of artists and philosophers, exploring the interplay between art, love, and the looming presence of mortality. The story primarily revolves around the gem-cutter Heron and his children, Melissa and Alexander, as they navigate their artistic ambitions and familial relationships against the backdrop of societal expectations and personal tragedies. The novel opens with a focus on Heron, a once-prominent sculptor reduced to gem-cutting due to personal grief following the loss of his wife. His son, Alexander, is an aspiring painter grappling with his own artistic identity while becoming infatuated with Korinna, a beautiful young woman who dies unexpectedly. As he paints her portrait, he becomes deeply affected by her beauty and the sorrow of her death. Meanwhile, the family's daily life is shadowed by discussions on the meaning of life, death, and the hope of spiritual connections with the departed. The siblings find themselves intertwined in a quest not only to understand their own emotions but also to help Philip, their brother, who becomes increasingly obsessed with the idea of reuniting with a spirit he believes he encountered. As the plot unfolds, themes of love, art, loss, and the search for meaning weave together, creating a narrative rich with emotional depth and philosophical inquiry.
