Your historians call me seductress, but I was ever in love's thrall. Your playwrights speak of witchcraft, but my talents came from the gods themselves. Your poets sing of my bloodlust, but I was always protecting my children. How wilfully they refuse to concede that a woman could be powerful, strategic, and divinely blessed to rule. Death will silence me no longer. This is not the story of how I died. But how I lived.

Reviewed by AliciaQuite a new perspective on Cleopatra. Such a good way of describing her life span and giving her a voice. Of course no one knows what dhe would really say but I liked this interpretation on history. Also I recommend the audio book, the narrator gives the story even more life.
