Sinuhe egyptilainen - Helsinki 1945

I read this book about 18 years ago and remember being very impressed by it. It was probably my very first adult novel I have read. The author describes life under 18th dynasty of Egyptian faros during an unusual power shift and a social reform, which resulted in a religious fight between two gods: the previous god of order - Amon and the new god of love and peace – Aton.
The book is very historically accurate, but on the other hand it links our present experiences with the almost incomparable life in the past.
