Product Description

Syrian poet Nouri al-Jarrah brings to life an ancient story after a single line in Aramaic on a tombstone fired his imagination. His epic poem awakens two lovers, Barates, a Syrian from Palmyra, and Regina, the Celtic slave he freed and married, from where they have lain at rest beside Hadrian’s Wall for eighteen centuries, and tells their tale.
