Kleopatra. Królowa, która rzuciła wyzwanie Rzymowi i zdobyła wieczną sławę

Most depictions emphasize her relationships, but this biography highlights her strategic mind. I wonder what led Schiff to shift the narrative focus this way.

Her intelligence and ambition came through so vividly, but I found myself empathizing with her more than I thought I would. Has anyone else experienced this?

Given the scarcity of direct records, it must have been tricky to piece together her life. I’m curious about her process in evaluating sources and filling in gaps.
