A Word Only A Word is a novel written by the German author Georg Ebers. The story is set in ancient Egypt and revolves around the lives of two brothers, Harmachis and Chaemwese. Harmachis is the high priest of the temple of Ra, while Chaemwese is a scribe and a lover of poetry. The two brothers are close, but their relationship is tested when they both fall in love with the same woman, the beautiful and mysterious Princess Bent-Anat. As they compete for her affections, they become embroiled in a web of political intrigue and betrayal that threatens to tear them apart. Along the way, they encounter a colorful cast of characters, including the pharaoh himself, and must navigate the dangerous waters of ancient Egyptian society. A Word Only A Word is a gripping tale of love, jealousy, and loyalty set against the backdrop of one of the world's most fascinating civilizations.A word, only a word! cried a fresh, boyish voice, then two hands were loudly clapped and a gay laugh echoed through the forest. Hitherto silence had reigned under the boughs of the pines and tops of the beeches, but now a wood-pigeon joined in the lad's laugh, and a jay, startled by the clapping of hands, spread its brown wings, delicately flecked with blue, and soared from one pine to another.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
