No more than 5 books per order allowed. - Book and wrapper still in great condition.    >>>    The English novelist Sir Henry Rider Haggard (1856-1925) is one of the few popular writers who created their own mythological worlds. Ayesha, one of the great mythical creations of the late 19th century, continues to fascinate generations of readers. As Haggard writes, "Who and what was Ayesha, nay what is Ayesha? An incarnate essence, a materialized being ?  -  A professor and a young man travel to Africa and find a lost city. She, She-who-must-be-obeyed, or simply: Ayesha, rules this city. - Haggard's novels have been called parables, asking "What are science, learning, and consciousness of knowledge and power, in the face of Omnipotence?" They have been called romance. And they have been called excitingly alive and imaginative by almost everyone from Robert Louis Stevenson to George Orwell.
