About the book

A fictionalized account of the Biblical tale in which a Hebrew infant, rescued by the daughter of the Pharaoh, passes through a turbulent adolescence to eventually become a prophet of his people while his sister finds her true self as a priestess to the Egyptian gods.

First sentence: My parents talked in the darkness for a long time, their voices moving in and out of my sleep like the back of a Hippopotamus rising and sinking in the Great Hapi.
