En savoir plus sur le livre

Set in 3rd century BC Carthage, the story centers on Salammbô, a priestess caught in the tumult of the Mercenary Revolt. The narrative unfolds as Matho, a mercenary leader, becomes obsessed with her and schemes to steal the sacred Zaïmph, a veil symbolizing the city's protection. Salammbô's quest to reclaim the veil leads her into the heart of danger. Flaubert's richly researched novel blends sensuous detail with violent themes, showcasing his departure from realism and solidifying his literary reputation, though it remains lesser-known in English.
