Cleopatra by Saara El-Arifi (26/02/26)

£18.99

PUBLISHED 26TH FEBRUARY 2026.

A magical, groundbreaking reimagining of an iconic queen.

YOU KNOW MY NAME. BUT YOU DO NOT KNOW ME.

Your historians call me seductress, but I was ever in love's thrall.

Your playwrights speak of witchcraft, but my talents came from the gods themselves.

Your poets sing of my bloodlust, but I was always protecting my children.

How wilfully they refuse to concede that a woman could be powerful, strategic, divinely blessed to rule.

Death will silence me no longer. This is not the story of how I died. But how I lived.
