The Romans regarded her as ""fatale monstrum""--a fatal omen.
Pascal said the shape of her nose changed the history of the world.
Shakespeare portrayed her as an icon of tragic love. But who was
Cleopatra, really?
We almost feel that we know Cleopatra, but our distorted image
of a self-destructive beauty does no justice to Cleopatra's true
genius. In "Cleopatra," Egyptologist Joyce Tyldesley offers an
unexpectedly vivid portrait of a skillful Egyptian ruler. Stripping
away our preconceptions, many of them as old as Egypt's Roman
conquerors, Cleopatra is a magnificent biography of a most
extraordinary queen.
