«El ojo del faraón» is the historical novel by Boris de Rachewiltz and Valentí Gómez i Oliver, published by Edhasa in paperback (324 pages, in Spanish).
In the final years of Pharaoh Neferkara Pepi, the courtier Ipuwer, «the man of honest heart», is the only one who dares to show him the chaotic situation of the people. That revelation gives way to the recollection of his long reign: exotic gardens, lunar eclipses, magical cats, dancing pygmies and popular festivals of ancient Egypt.
The subtitle on the cover is «Una novela del Antiguo Egipto»; it belongs to the Narrativas históricas collection by Edhasa.
Recommended for readers of historical fiction and for those who enjoy ancient Egypt and Egyptology.
Boris de Rachewiltz (1926–1997) was an Italian Egyptologist and writer on Africa and the ancient world.
