About this book

When Julius Caesar arrives in Egypt and finds Cleopatra in hiding, he encourages her to return to the palace and embrace her role as queen. Shaw depicts an unlikely pair that bond over a common goal.

As Roman forces invade Egypt, Julius Caesar stumbles across a young Cleopatra hiding amongst the statues. He initially conceals his identity, as the queen expresses concern over Caesar and his impending army. When he convinces her to return to the palace, she soon discovers his true name. Following a brief exchange, the young woman is relieved as Caesar has quelled her worst fears. Yet, in the midst of a Roman occupation, Cleopatra and her brother Ptolemy engage in a bitter battle for the Egyptian throne.

In Caesar and Cleopatra, George Bernard Shaw explores the unique dynamic between two of history's most notable figures. It's a cynical but entertaining view of the political warfare that ravaged Ancient Egypt. With his sharp prose, Shaw revitalizes the classic story and its infamous characters.
