About This Book

A two-part dramatic collection centers first on a tragic plot in a Galatian city where Synorix, a returning exile, becomes entangled by obsessive love for Camma, wife of the local ruler Sinnatus, while Roman officers and temple rites complicate shifting loyalties and schemes. Scenes mix hunting, ritual, and political maneuvering to dramatize how personal passion collides with public ambition and religious duty. A companion piece offers a shorter, more concentrated dramatic or lyrical meditation that echoes themes of control, fate, and the tension between desire and restraint.
