Audible Editor Reviews
Margriet De Moor's Duke of Egypt is an intricate love story between horse-farmer Lucie and nomadic Joseph. Although they marry and lead a traditional life, Joseph returns to his gypsy family for a few months every year. Moor brings to light struggles modern gypsies face. Kathleen Gati's performance of this story is intimate and lyrical. Her clear and sweet voice, languidly paced, lets this romantic story sing. Gati is an award-winning actress and Moor is an international best-selling author. Together, they have created a moving, romantic, and complex audiobook.
Publisher's Summary
Young, flame-haired Lucie raises horses on her father’s farm. One summer day, she meets a dark, handsome stranger, Joseph, and it is love at first sight. But their union is as improbable as their love is deep. For Joseph is a wanderer, a full-blooded Gypsy, a man for whom all Europe is a stomping ground. Despite their cultural differences, they marry, have three children, and lead a normal life with one exception: each spring their life is suspended as Joseph returns to his other family, the Gypsies, scattered to the four corners of Europe.
