Egypt, proud of the only surviving wonder of the Seven Wonders, has always fascinated the imagination of anyone who cares. A documentary-publicist novella about the author’s trip to the land of the ancient pharaohs allows you to immerse yourself in the aura of those places, feel the scorching breath of the desert, see the waves of the Red Sea… and leave the book with an illusion of having been there—where the sand doesn’t even have time to cool in the shadow of the pyramids. © Victor Ulin, 2007 — photo. © Victor Ulin, 2019 — cover design.
