The Cleopatras by Lloyd Llewellyn-Jones

The Cleopatras by Lloyd Llewellyn-Jones is a groundbreaking historical narrative that reclaims the legacy of the many women named Cleopatra who ruled Egypt long before and beyond the famous Cleopatra VII. Through vivid storytelling and cutting-edge scholarship, the book explores a dynasty of powerful, intelligent, and often misunderstood queens who shaped the ancient world.

With gripping detail, The Cleopatras challenges Hollywood myths and brings to life a feminist retelling of Hellenistic Egypt, rooted in politics, identity, and power.

Memorable Quote (from the book)
"Cleopatra was not one woman she was a dynasty of queens who ruled with strategy and style."

Translation (Sinhala):
"ක්ලියෝපැට්රා යනු තනි රැජිනක් නොවෙයි ආකල්ප හා තේරුමකින් පිරුණු රාජධානියක් විය."

Translation (Tamil):
"கிளியோபாட்ரா ஒரே பெண் அல்ல பலரால் நிர்வகிக்கப்பட்ட ஒரு அரச மகளிர் வம்சம்."
