"An Egyptian Princess — Volume 10" by Georg Ebers is a historical novel written during the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds in Ancient Egypt, amidst the backdrop of royal intrigue and human emotions, focusing on the character Bartja, the brother of Cambyses, who is caught in a web of familial conflict and political strife following the birth of his daughter. As relationships evolve and tensions mount, readers experience the complexities of love, duty, and the consequences of power struggles among the ruling elite. At the start of the novel, the story reveals that Bartja's wife, Sappho, has given birth to a daughter, which adds emotional depth to the characters as they navigate a landscape marked by Cambyses' erratic behavior and the specter of his jealousy over Bartja's successes. The opening chapters depict a festive excursion up the Nile as the characters engage in conversations about their lives, ambitions, and the complexities of their relationships, particularly regarding Cambyses' volatile nature. As they celebrate the festival of the goddess Neith, the complex dynamics and foreshadowed tensions bring a sense of impending conflict, hinting that the harmony of the moment is precarious amidst the underlying struggles for power and recognition.
