Summary "The Bride of the Nile — Volume 02" by Georg Ebers is a historical novel likely written during the late 19th century. The narrative dives deep into the tumultuous lives of its characters amidst the backdrop of political turmoil in Egypt, focusing particularly on themes of revenge, conscience, and familial bonds, following the character George the Mukaukas and his troubled relationships with his family and the socio-political landscape. At the start of the volume, we witness George grappling with the burdens of guilt and the consequences of his vengeful actions against the Melchites, who he blames for the murder of his sons. He finds himself in conflict between his quest for revenge and the Christian values he holds dear. As he enjoys unforeseen prosperity and favor from the new Muslim rulers, his conscience weighs heavily upon him. Meanwhile, the plot shifts to Paula, George's niece, who is entwined in her own struggles relating to lost family and her unrequited feelings for Orion, George's son. As Paula seeks connection and harbors a determined desire to locate her missing father, the tumult of emotions and complicated dynamics among the family and their retainers set the stage for further conflict, serving to explore the interplay between personal desires and societal obligations.
