Edna: A Tale of the Babylonian Captivity is a novel written by Julian St. Clare and published in 1880. The story is set in ancient Babylon and follows the life of Edna, a young Jewish woman who is taken captive by the Babylonians during their invasion of Judah. As Edna adapts to her new life in Babylon, she struggles with her faith and the cultural differences between her people and the Babylonians. She is taken in by a wealthy Babylonian family and becomes close with their son, Nebuchadnezzar. As the years pass, Edna becomes more and more integrated into Babylonian society and begins to question her loyalty to her own people. However, when King Cyrus of Persia conquers Babylon and allows the Jews to return to their homeland, Edna is faced with a difficult decision: should she stay in Babylon with Nebuchadnezzar or return to Judah with her people? The novel explores themes of faith, loyalty, and cultural identity, and provides a vivid portrayal of life in ancient Babylon.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
