Cleopatra by Lucy Hughes-Hallett
Since Cleopatra's death she has been recreated over and over again, each time in a form that fits the prejudices and fantasies of the age that produced it. This book is about those images, and also about politics - sexual, racial and constitutional - and about morality, neurosis and desire.
