5-0 out of 5 stars Aunque un bestseller, es un gran clásico de la novela histórica.

Esta es la obra más popular de Mika Waltari, autor finlandés de primera mitad de siglo veinte. Y es uno de los mayores bestsellers de todos los tiempos. Pocas veces un "best seller" tan popular como éste se gana las buenas críticas literarias de los entendidos y permanece en las estanterías de las tiendas de libros generación tras generación.

"Sinuhé" merece permanecer en todos los hogares porque es una obra maravillosa que, como todos los libros clásicos, quedará en la memoria y los corazones de todos quienes lo lean.

Es considerado por muchos -y yo estoy de acuerdo- como la mejor obra histórica hasta la fecha. Cuenta la historia en primera persona de un egipcio y de sus experiencias y viajes hace más de mil años antes de Cristo. En estos viajes llega a conocer las grandes naciones de lo que hoy es Oriente Medio. En sus páginas hay un pozo inmenso de sabiduría, no especialmente por su variedad de experiencias y personajes, sino por la reflexiones acerca de la naturaleza humana, que son tan de ayer y de hoy como de cualquier tiempo.

El modo de contar de Sinuhé es tan particular que engancha y, aunque no contase cosas tan interesantes como cuenta, produce una sensación de música cadenciosa y alegría en el corazón; porque uno se da cuenta de la bondad y sinceridad que emana de este protagonista a lo largo de la narración de sus aventuras.

Esta es una obra extensa, más de 700 páginas en mi edición, pero uno llega a gozar de estos paisajes antiguos, de estos personajes tan maravillosos cuyas almas casi leemos. En fin, de esto está hecho el corazón de los hombres, de un vacío insondable que clama por ser llenado de lo divino y de su misterio.

5-0 out of 5 stars No pueden dejar de leerlo
Sinuhe el Egipcio es una maravilla de libro al igual que todos los otros libros de Mika Waltari (los dos libros de Mikael Karajalka, El Sitio de Contantinopla, SPQR, etc). Resulta emocionante poder recorrer el Egipto de 3000 AC con una enorme cantidad de detalles, para los cuales Mika Waltari estudio muchos años la cultura egipcia. A partir de este libro se hizo una pelicula que es muy buena, pero el libro es realmente alucinante. Recomiendo este libro para aquellos que quieran conocer mas de la literatura de Mika Waltari.

5-0 out of 5 stars ¡Estupendo!
Quiero decirles que esta es la historia mas interesante que he leido en toda mi vida. Se trata de Sinuhe, un doctor egipcio exiliado que escribe su vida, desde su nacimiento humilde hasta que llegue a atender los faraones. Este libro te hace pensar, te hace llorar, te hace reir, ¡lo tiene todo! Ademas, esta basado sobre hechos reales. El autor tuvo mas de 10 años estudiando la historia de Egipcio y los rollos de Sinuhe. Es interesante notar que a pesar del hecho que la historia trata de sucesos que pasaran hace unos 3.000 años, nosotros podemos identificarnos con todo. Espero que todo el mundo tenga el privilegio de leer esta obra maestra. (Este repaso se refiere al "The Egyptian", lo cual es la misma historia, pero en ingles.)

5-0 out of 5 stars Time and destiny
Sinhue is just like you and me, growing up in a fast changing world and facing challenging obstacles.

Living day to day with certainties and confusions that plague all human beings evolving in a life that resembles our own in so many ways...

The scenery to this story is the middle empire in Egipt, the Pharaho, Amenothep IV reigns under the name of Akenaton and Amon-Ra has fallen to the Sun disk, Aton, the new god that reigns unchallenged in heaven.

As feelings stir passions also love and friendship are set ablaze.

As the tides of events calm down so does age set in and calm reigns again in Egipt and in Sinhue's heart...

Tutankamon, the child Pharaho reings again to reestablish Amon-Ra from defeat to splendor !

Memories of golden times and of great feats, long gone friends and a lost love, a tragic beginning in a cane basket going down the Nile.

Is destiny repeating itself?

Beautifull novel, set in historic events. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Iron Age Odyssey
Review of "The Etruscan" by Mika Waltari

Iron Age Odyssey

I loved this story.

This book follows the travels and exploits of Lars Turms as he searches the ancient world.He searches for his origin and for the meaning of his life.The search takes him to: rebellion, to war, to piracy, to asceticism and to the sophistication of his homeland. As the adventure unfolds he looks for understanding in politics, in religion, in nature and in love.

The story introduces the reader to the civilizations of the Mediterranean during the Iron Age.Early in the book Turms is involved in the Ionian Revolts against Darius the King of Persia.The result of this disastrous rebellion is an odyssey of action, excitement, adventure, romance and religion.The ensuing travels contrast the cultures of the time.

It was very realistic.I could just imagine the Iron Age people behaving just as they were portrayed.

The pace of the story never slowed.There was action and suspense from beginning to end.

It was easy to sympathize with the plight of the characters.I could identify with Turms and his entire cohort.

The book gave a sense of the timelessness of the human condition.The questions posed by Turms are very much like questions we all ask today.The book presented timeless answers to questions asked by the main character.Seek and yea shall find.

Open your mind to the possible.Expand your consciousness back in time and find a magical world of the past.Read and enjoy this book.

5-0 out of 5 stars A wonderful novel
This is the best book I've ever read.

It is the history of an Egyptian doctor in pharaonic times, since its childhood to his old years. As he wants to forget a woman, he travels around the then known world to places like Syria, Babylonia, the Hitite Empire, Crete and others places and has a lot of adventures. But deep in his heart he feels lonely. He returns to Egypt just in time to be witness of the changes brought there by Akhenaton as he tries to change the god Amon for a new one, Aton in the first monotheist religion the world knew.

This book is very well written and documented, with a history that may have happen in reality. ... Read more
