«Marie d’Egypte» is the historical novel by Jacques Lacarrière, published by Lattes in 1983 in paperback (in French).
The narrative follows the life of Mary of Egypt, a fourth-century saint who ends up living as a hermit in the Egyptian desert. Throughout that life, Lacarrière explores faith, penance and personal transformation, while the arid landscape reinforces the spiritual tone and the historical context of the story.
May be of interest to readers of historical novels and stories with a spiritual background.
