Description
Gore Vidal's novel reimagines the Roman Empire at a pivotal moment in its history. The story revolves around an emperor who is both a brilliant leader and a complex individual, marked by his eccentricities and prejudices.
This fictional recreation explores the tensions between the empire's pagan traditions and the emerging Christian faith, set against the backdrop of a ruler who is both a patron of the arts and a fierce defender of orthodoxy.
