The Egyptian Page #4

Synopsis: In eighteenth-dynasty Egypt, Sinuhe, a poor orphan, becomes a brilliant physician and with his friend Horemheb is appointed to the service of the new Pharoah. Sinuhe's personal triumphs and tragedies are played against the larger canvas of the turbulent events of the 18th dynasty. As Sinuhe is drawn into court intrigues, and bizarre secrets are revealed to him, he learns the answers to the questions he has sought since his birth. Short on historical accuracy but strong on plot and characterization.

And I got an eagle on my network ...

The Pharaoh himself.

He loved me, Sinuhe

because I was strong and vigorous ...

because I was vulgar and uneducated,

and told her the truth.

His other wives,

well born and delicate ...

How they hated me.

So I swore to give him a son,

And gave.

But the gods were wicked

They gave me a son so sweet

and a daughter as hard as a man.

Baketamon should be the pharaoh ...
