Translated by Clara Bell
A historical novel written in the late 19th century, examining the dynamics of power, faith, and personal relationships in Egypt during the Arab conquest. The narrative takes place in a period marked by the tension between the new Islamic rulers and the remnants of the Byzantine Empire, delving into the lives of key characters such as Orion, the son of the governor Mukaukas George, and Paula, the beautiful daughter of a Melchite general. The story explores themes of love, loyalty, and the clash of cultures, set against the backdrop of a changing Egypt. The opening of the novel introduces the reader to a time of upheaval in Egypt, following its conquest by the Arabs. Amidst the decaying city of Memphis, a caravan arrives led by the merchant Haschim, who navigates the complex relations between the Egyptians and their new rulers. We meet the characters of Orion, recently returned from Constantinople, and Paula, who resides in the governor's house under strained circumstances due to her Melchite heritage. As Orion’s family grapples with both personal relationships and the broader implications of political and religious tensions in the era, the groundwork for conflict and romance is carefully laid. The initial chapters showcase the characters’ interactions, underline societal prejudices, and hint at the emotional challenges that will unfold as their lives become intertwined.
