About the Event:
The Penguin Bookshop welcomes back local author Marie Benedict to celebrate the launch of her latest book, Daughter of Egypt. In this new novel, Benedict transports readers from the glamour and turbulence of 1920s Britain and Cairo to the sands and lush shores of ancient Egypt. She weaves a story of a young woman who unearths the truth about a forgotten Pharaoh, rewriting both of their legacies forever.
Marie will engage in a conversation about the book and her research process. The discussion lasts approximately one hour and concludes with a Q&A from the audience.
