{"product_id":"cleopatra-joyce-tyldesley-9780465018925","title":"Cleopatra: Last Queen of Egypt","description":"The Romans regarded her as \"\u003ci\u003efatale monstrum\u003c\/i\u003e\" -- 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? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWe almost feel that we know Cleopatra, but our distorted image of a self-destructive beauty does no justice to Cleopatra's true genius. In \u003ci\u003eCleopatra\u003c\/i\u003e, 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joyce Tyldesley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0465018920\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780465018925\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Basic Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/22\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.20w x 0.80d","brand":"Joyce Tyldesley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44046979039487,"sku":"9780465018925","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_365e5d1a-bfc3-4351-87d0-7c34b7b298ab.jpg?v=1684987586","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cleopatra-joyce-tyldesley-9780465018925","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
