A runaway bestseller on its publication in 1887, H. Rider Haggard's She is a
Victorian thrill ride of a novel, featuring a lost African kingdom ruled by a
mysterious, implacable queen; ferocious wildlife and yawning abysses; and an
eerie love story that spans two thousand years. She has bewitched readers from
Freud and Jung to C. S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien; in her Introduction to this
Modern Library Paperback Classic-which includes period illustrations by Maurice
Greiffenhagen and Charles H. M. Kerr-Margaret Atwood asserts that the
awe-inspiring Ayesha, "She-who-must-be-obeyed," is "a permanent feature of the
human imagination."
