Hypatia - New fews with an old face

More about the book

Set in the 413th year of the Christian Era, the story follows young monk Philammon as he reflects on life atop cliffs overlooking a vast desert. The harsh landscape, marked by drifting sand and ancient tombs, serves as a backdrop for his introspection and spiritual journey. The contrasting elements of the lifeless desert and the remnants of civilization, such as obelisks and quarries, highlight themes of solitude, history, and the search for meaning in a seemingly desolate world.
