There's a city far away.... My parents often spoke of it as if it had always been there and always would be. I had seen it in paintings, I had read of it in stories, the richest, most powerful place on earth...the centre of everything. It drew people from every corner of the empire and beyond, hungry for wealth and power, or in some case, more wealth and more power. They were dazzled by its brightness. And like moths drawn to a candle...many were burnt alive by its fire.... Tumanbay.

L'Égypte ancienne nous inspire surtout la vision de momies et de trésors funéraires, mais qu'en était-il des vivants et des objets de la vie quotidienne ? Sortons des tombeaux pour partir à la rencontre de vingt-quatre protagonistes, dont certains ont réellement existé : nous allons côtoyer des hommes tels que le pharaon, son vizir, son architecte, un embaumeur, un pêcheur, un briquetier et même un pilleur de tombes, mais aussi des femmes telles que la grande épouse royale, une accoucheuse, une prêtresse, une couturière, une pleureuse, une danseuse ou encore une simple maîtresse de maison.
