Beschreibung
In the reign of Cleopatra, an insignificant young man is in love. Meïamoun is captivated by his beloved, but she seems unattainable. There is a reason why the handsome young fellow is barred from his quest. The one he wants is his queen. He stands on the outskirts of great ceremonies just to catch a glimpse of her. He dreams of her charms and fascinations constantly. One night, having followed her royal cangia along the Nile to a palace at the waters' edge, his obsession overtakes him - through an open window he fires an arrow with a note attached which bears the simple words "I love you. " Will Cleopatra acknowledge him. What further feats of daring must he undertake to get near her. If he does, what could possibly happen. In this high-stakes undertaking, one thing is for sure - he will risk his life. One of Cleopatra's Nights was first published with other novellas in a volume entitled A Tear of the Devil in 1839.
