La curandera de Atenas

Fifth century BC Helena, daughter of the philosopher Empedocles, is kidnapped in Sicily and, after a long journey, sold in Athens to Aspasia of Miletus, lover of Pericles. There you will meet Hippocrates, one of the most famous doctors of ancient Greece, whose wisdom has survived to this day. Together with him you will enter the world of healing and true love. From slave to hetaira, from heretic to healer, the character of Helena shows us in this novel the peak moment of classical Athens, a city through which in this period the most illustrious philosophers parade and where democracy sows its first seeds. The healer of Athens narrates the beginnings of medicine through a sensual and fascinating character.
