BR 2-18: Cleopatra

I read Cleopatra. Cleopatra is a famous historical figure. So everyone knows the woman. Of course I know her, but I didn't know what sort she is. So I thought I wanted to read this book.

Cleopatra had good looks, culture and wit, and she led Roman influential men around by the nose. Cleopatra was said that she was so beautiful. However, she was not only beautiful but also smart. I understood it by reading these sentences, "Cleopatra was just twelve when she realized her family's resign was in danger. She was reading about Greek gods."(Daynes, 2004, p.8). She learned a lot of things by herself. I think I want to a woman who has culture and wit like Cleopatra. Please read this book!
