Kennington|These compositions make the ancient Egyptians seem more life-like than any other literature by or about them that I have ever read. Whereas the slightly later "Egyptian Book of the Dead" seems distant, formal and impersonal, these Middle Kingdom compositions are full of humanity and h| |`'...in sensitivity to language, range of scholarship, and attention to nuances, Richard Parkinson is simply the best...This is a book which deserves the widest readership.''

`'...These new translations draw on refcent advances in Egyptolog

These new translations bring to life for the modern reader the golden age of Egyptian fictional literature, the Middle Kingdom (c. 1938-1640 BC), and include the masterpiece of Egyptian poetry, The Tale of Sinuhe. An introduction and notes explain historical details, and offer for the first time a literary reading, to enable these poems to entertain and instruct, as they did their original audiences three-and-a-half thousand years ago.
