Jackson, MS: University Press of Mississippi (1994)

First Edition. Signed. Very good in dust jacket.

The bestselling author of In The Land of Dreamy Dreams expands her fictional landscape and for the first time recounts a story set in ancient times. 500 B.C.--Pericles is dead; the Golden Age has peaked; and, in its aftermath, in a Grecian setting of declines and fall, a slave girl begins her ascension to freedom and self-discovery.
