A historical novel written during the early 19th century. The story is set in the ancient city of Pompeii, focusing on the lives and interactions of its citizens in the days leading up to the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Central characters include Glaucus, a young Athenian filled with poetic sensibility; Clodius, a coxcomb and gamester; Nydia, a blind flower girl; and Arbaces, an enigmatic Egyptian. The novel intertwines personal dramas with the vibrant backdrop of Roman life, capturing the beauty and decadence of the era. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to various characters as they navigate the social landscape of Pompeii. The narrative opens with a conversation between Clodius and Diomed, providing insights into their characters and hints at the social dynamics of their interactions. Glaucus and Clodius's friendship unfolds amidst discussions about beauty and pleasure, leading them deeper into the city's bustling streets. Additionally, Glaucus expresses a yearning for a mysterious woman named Ione, while he also shows kindness towards the blind flower girl, Nydia, reflecting a growing sense of emotional complexity. The opening chapters effectively set up a vivid picture of Pompeii’s lively culture while foreshadowing the impending tragedy that will alter their fates.
