A Question is a novel written by Georg Ebers, a German Egyptologist and novelist. The story is set in ancient Egypt and revolves around the life of a young Egyptian named Hatasu, who is the daughter of a high priest. Hatasu is in love with a young physician named Pentaur, but their love is forbidden due to their social status. When Hatasu's father dies, she becomes the high priestess of the temple, and Pentaur is accused of stealing a sacred relic. Hatasu is torn between her duty to the temple and her love for Pentaur, and she sets out to solve the mystery of the stolen relic to clear his name. Along the way, she faces many challenges and learns valuable lessons about love, loyalty, and sacrifice. The novel is a captivating tale of ancient Egypt, filled with vivid descriptions of the culture, customs, and beliefs of the time. It is a timeless story of love and adventure that will appeal to readers of all ages.To try your luck with Xanthe? I tell you, it's trouble wasted, for she's dressing her hair to receive our guest from Messina; and, if she were standing where those cabbage-leaves be, she wouldn't contradict me if I were to repeat what you heard from my lips this morning at sunrise. Our girl will never become Phaon's wife until I myself offer a sacrifice to Aphrodite, that she may fill Xanthe's heart with love for him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
