World news was the discovery of a very special Roman sarcophagus in Simpelveld in 1930. The carvings on the inside and the grave goods and, of course, the ashes of the deceased tell us part of the history. This novel tells the whole life story of the woman for whom the sarcophagus was made. Rome in the year 190 AD: On his deathbed, her father tells Juna that she is a foster child and that her real mother lives in Sempervivetum (Simpelveld). Juna travels with a few slaves to Gaul in the northwestern Roman Empire to visit her mother who manages a villa rustica there. Surprises await her in Sempervivetum. Juna emerges as an intelligent, emancipated woman who takes an innovative approach to managing the villa and estates. The author Sjef Leenen After his well-received debut novel 'Koppelmenu', Sjef Leenen brings out his second novel. He has studied writing in Antwerp and Genk. Writing fiction is his passion. In the life story of the Lady of Simpelveld, he has incorporated the actual research results of the sarcophagus, ashes and grave goods. He then placed this in a real historical picture of the Roman Empire, 2nd century AD.

Linde | 6549 comments Bedankt voor je geduld! Ik heb het boek hier toegevoegd: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Ik kon je hyperlink helaas niet gebruiken, aangezien de ISBN niet wordt genoemd op die pagina. Gelukkig heb ik het hier gevonden (Amazon & AbeBooks zijn de uitzondering op de regel van 'geen boekverkopers'): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
