Cleopatra: A Life (Paperback)$16.99 ISBN-13: 9780316001946Availability: On Our Shelves Now Published: Back Bay Books, 9/2011 My plan to dip into this bio at my leisure was destroyed by the first paragraph. Stacy Schiff immediately brought me into the world of 98 B.C., and the life of this amazing woman. For all of us carrying forth our grandmothers' and mothers' work to bring women equality, it is mind-boggling to discover the equality in law and life for women of Cleopatra's time. Read and weep; read and rejoice! -Kathleen V.
