Krátky popis
**THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER FROM THE DIRECTOR GENERAL OF
POMPEII**'The best book on Pompeii I've ever read' STEPHEN FRY'An
essential read for anyone interested in this extraordinary place'
TELEGRAPH'Brilliant' TOM HOLLANDA vast area of Pompeii is being
excavated for the first time, revealing astonishing insights into
how people really lived. In this revelatory new history, Director
of Pompeii Gabriel Zuchtriegel shares the untold stories that are
at last emerging.Pompeii is a world frozen in time. There are
unmade beds, dishes left drying, tools abandoned by workmen, bodies
embracing with love and fear. And alongside the remnants of
everyday life, there are captivating works of art: lifelike
portraits, exquisite frescos and mosaics, and the extraordinary
sculpture of a sleeping boy, curled up under a blanket that's too
small.The Buried City reconstructs the catastrophe that destroyed
Pompeii on 24 August 79 CE, but it also offers a behind-the-scenes
tour of the city as it was before: who lived here, what mattered to
them, and what happened in their final hours. It offers us a vivid
sense of Pompeii's continuing relevance, and proves that ancient
history is much closer to us than we think.'A fascinating new book
about what we are still learning about this most haunting of all
lost cities... deeply moving' MAIL ON SUNDAY'Makes the familiar
magical' DAN SNOW
