The oldest fiction we have, dug out of the sand. Flinders Petrie, the man who made Egyptology a science, translates the stories Egyptians actually told each other: the doomed prince, the two brothers, magicians and shipwrecks and talking hearts, from the eighteenth and nineteenth dynasties. You will discover a people who invented the short story three thousand years before we noticed. Strange, funny, and startlingly close. Press play and listen to Egypt talk.
