Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book transports readers to the ancient world of Philippi, a bustling Macedonian city under Roman rule. The story centers on Salome, a young, privileged Thracian woman grappling with a profound sense of loss and the unsettling emergence of a new religion. The author skillfully weaves together the intricate tapestry of pagan beliefs, customs, and rituals with the rising influence of Christianity. As Salome searches for her lost amulet, a symbol of protection and fortune, she encounters a community of Christians who offer her solace and a radically different way of life. The book explores the profound impact of faith on individuals and societies, challenging the reader to consider the power of belief and the nature of true security in a world where societal structures and ancient traditions are in flux. The author's keen observations on the tensions between the old and the new, and the ways in which individuals navigate faith and loss, offer a compelling glimpse into a transformative era.
