Helena's Household: A Tale of Rome in the First Century is a historical fiction novel written by James DeMille and published in 1882. Set in Rome during the first century, the book follows the life of Helena, a young woman who is forced to leave her home and family to become a slave in the household of a wealthy Roman family. As Helena adjusts to her new life, she becomes embroiled in the political and social intrigues of the Roman elite. She forms alliances with other slaves and even falls in love with a fellow servant. However, she also faces danger and betrayal from those who would use her for their own gain.Throughout the novel, DeMille provides a vivid portrayal of life in ancient Rome, from the opulent homes of the wealthy to the squalid conditions of the city's poor.
