Descrizione

About The Book: "She," written by H. Rider Haggard in 1887, is a highly popular adventure novel set in Africa. The story follows Horace Holly and his ward Leo Vincey on a journey to a lost kingdom where they encounter a mysterious white queen named Ayesha, known as "She-who-must-be-obeyed." Haggard, inspired by his experiences in South Africa, explores themes of female authority and feminine behavior in this enduring classic. The narrative incorporates elements of the supernatural and immortality, with Ayesha's character possessing extraordinary powers. The plot unfolds with twists involving reincarnation, love, and the quest for eternal life. Notably, "She" continues to influence literature and popular culture.
