Sinouhé l'Egyptien II

The first book left many questions about Sinuhe's journey unanswered. I'm curious whether the author planned this as a trilogy or if the story evolved during writing.

The rich details made the setting come alive, but I wonder how much research went into capturing the culture accurately versus creative interpretation.

His struggles seem timeless, but I'm interested in how the author intended his personal dilemmas to reflect broader human themes.
