"Elissa" is a historical novel by H. Rider Haggard. It tells the story of a young Greek woman named Elissa, who is sold into slavery and taken to the city of Tyre in ancient Phoenicia. Elissa is purchased by a wealthy merchant named Ithobal, who becomes infatuated with her and takes her as his mistress. Despite her enslavement, Elissa is intelligent and resourceful, and she soon becomes involved in the political intrigue of Tyre, which is under threat from the growing power of the Persian Empire. As tensions rise between Tyre and Persia, Elissa finds herself drawn into a dangerous plot to save the city. With the help of a young Greek soldier named Pythagoras, she embarks on a perilous journey across the Mediterranean to seek the aid of Carthage, Tyre's ally and rival. The novel is richly detailed and features vivid descriptions of ancient cities, landscapes, and customs. It also explores themes of love, loyalty, and the struggle for power in the ancient world. Overall, "Elissa" is a compelling historical adventure that will appeal to fans of Haggard's other works, as well as readers who enjoy epic tales of adventure and romance set in the ancient world.
