The book delves into the life of the famous Egyptian queen Cleopatra, exploring her relationships and the political intrigue of her time, particularly focusing on her interactions with important figures like Julius Caesar and Mark Antony. The opening of the novel introduces us to Gorgias, an architect tasked by Cleopatra to oversee grand constructions in Alexandria, fittingly capturing the grandeur of the setting. The narrative establishes a backdrop of political tension as Gorgias is approached by Caesarion, Cleopatra's son, who seeks to discuss important matters.

The chapter intricately weaves personal ambitions with historical events, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of Cleopatra's characterization and her tumultuous reign.
