Produced by Al Haines
"Cleopatra" by Claude Ferval is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story delves into the life and legacy of Cleopatra VII, the last Pharaoh of Egypt, exploring her relationships with powerful figures such as Julius Caesar and Mark Antony. It captures the complexity of her character as someone traipsing the line between ruler and lover, genius and seducer. The opening of the novel introduces the enigmatic figure of Cleopatra, contrasting her physical appearance with her remarkable intellect and diplomatic skills. It recounts her return to Alexandria after being exiled, presenting her as an astute young woman determined to reclaim power and secure her throne by appealing to Julius Caesar. In these early pages, Cleopatra's ambition, wit, and charm are highlighted as she devises a plan to seduce Caesar and gain his assistance, laying the groundwork for her astrological struggles amid the political turmoil of ancient Egypt.
