The Life and Confession of Asenath the Daughter of Pentephres of Heliopolis Narrating How the All-Beautiful Joseph Took Her to Wife is a historical fiction novel written by Mary Brodrick in 1900. The story is set in ancient Egypt and follows the life of Asenath, the daughter of a high priest in Heliopolis. Asenath is a beautiful and intelligent young woman who has sworn to remain celibate and devote her life to the goddess Isis. However, her life takes a dramatic turn when she meets Joseph, the handsome and virtuous Hebrew slave who has been brought to Egypt by the Pharaoh. Despite her initial resistance, Asenath falls in love with Joseph and eventually marries him, becoming the wife of one of the most powerful men in Egypt. The novel explores themes of love, faith, and redemption, as Asenath struggles to reconcile her devotion to Isis with her love for Joseph and her newfound faith in the God of the Hebrews. Brodrick's novel is a vivid and engaging portrayal of life in ancient Egypt, with richly drawn characters and a compelling storyline that will keep readers hooked until the very end.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
