Le lupe di Pompei
Le lupe di Pompei sono Amara, Didone, Vittoria, Berenice, Cressa. Ma nessuna di loro si chiama davvero così. Questi sono i loro nomi da schiave, costrette alla prostituzione nel bordello cittadino dal cinico padrone Felicio. Nella Pompei antica, che procede ignara incontro al proprio destino, vivendo contrasti abissali tra ricchezza e miseria, uomini e donne, cittadini liberi e schiavi privi di qualunque diritto, le ragazze che abitano il postribolo tentano ogni giorno di sopravvivere alla brutalità delle loro notti. Qualcuna, come Amara, ricorda un passato di libertà ed è decisa a riconquistarlo con ogni mezzo; altre, al contrario, sono nate schiave e non hanno conosciuto un'esistenza diversa. Ma nonostante il dolore di ogni storia personale e la continua gara per procacciarsi clienti, denaro e pane, le lupe possono contare le une sulle altre, farsi custodi delle reciproche debolezze e paure, proteggersi a vicenda ogni volta che è possibile, senza perdere la capacità di cogliere minuscole gioie quotidiane, ma soprattutto senza perdere la speranza: le strade di Pompei sono piene di opportunità e perfino chi non ha più nulla può trovare un'occasione per rovesciare la sorte in suo favore. Con "Le lupe di Pompei", primo capitolo di una trilogia imbastita sullo sfondo di una realtà lontana nel tempo ma brulicante di vita, Elodie Harper mette in scena un racconto di resistenza umana e femminile, riuscendo a dar voce alle donne le cui storie sono rimaste ai margini della Storia.

La casa dalla porta dorata
Amara è riuscita a fuggire dalla schiavitù del lupanare più famigerato di Pompei. Grazie ai favori di Rufo, il giovane nobile che l'ha eletta sua cortigiana prediletta, ora ha una casa tutta per sé, bei vestiti e perfino dei servitori. Ma la ragazza è consapevole che si tratta di concessioni precarie: la sua libertà durerà soltanto finché riuscirà a mantenere alte l'attenzione e la soddisfazione di Rufo. Mentre tenta di abituarsi a questa nuova vita, Amara è ancora perseguitata dal passato. Di notte ha incubi sul lupanare e sulle donne che si è lasciata alle spalle: più che amiche, sorelle, di cui sente la mancanza e a cui vorrebbe donare un'occasione di riscatto, ora che può farlo. Di giorno, invece, a turbarla è Felicio, il suo vecchio padrone che ora è in cerca di vendetta. Per ottenere davvero il controllo della propria vita, la giovane dovrà imparare ad agire come lui: senza scrupolo alcuno. Ma quando inaspettatamente si innamora, le insidie e i pericoli si moltiplicano: nella sua posizione, Amara non può permettersi il lusso della vulnerabilità e nessuno deve scoprire che ha un punto debole, nemmeno il suo benefattore, che forse non conosce così bene come credeva. In questo gioco di equilibri sempre più precari, riuscirà a mantenere i suoi privilegi di cortigiana e a eludere i ricatti di Felicio, senza mettere in pericolo le poche persone a cui tiene veramente?
