Mehr zum Buch

The narrative centers on Pharaoh Akhenaten's radical vision to unify Egypt under the worship of a single deity, challenging the deeply rooted polytheistic traditions of his conservative society. As he grapples with the potential fallout of his revolutionary beliefs, the story explores themes of power, faith, and legacy. It raises questions about the sustainability of such a transformation and whether his efforts can endure beyond his reign, particularly concerning the search for a successor to carry on his groundbreaking experiment in religious reform.
