Œuvres complètes de Gustave Flaubert, tome 2: Salammbô by Gustave Flaubert

"Œuvres complètes de Gustave Flaubert, tome 2: Salammbô" by Gustave Flaubert is a historical novel published in 1862. Set in third-century BC Carthage, it depicts the Mercenary War between the city and barbarian mercenaries who revolted after being denied promised wages following the First Punic War. Flaubert traveled to Tunisia in 1858 to immerse himself in the landscape and atmosphere. He created a vivid, sensual, and violent portrait of an exotic ancient world, drawing on limited historical sources to craft his epic tale. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
