Description

Georg Ebers wrote this historical novel of Alexandria; volume four opens at chapter sixteen. Dada spends a bright day under the roof of Medius, charmed by costumes, scenery, and kind children. Her tricks and rhymes, stale to Papias by now, delight the new household.

Medius, a singer, buys any bargain that catches his eye. That morning he bought a whole tub of pickled fish at the harbor auction for a trifle. His wife rages that the last herring will outlast them all. Comic home strife gives this volume a warm, light opening amid the city's graver storms.
