Claudius the stammerer made it his business to watch from the sidelines and record the antics of the imperial households. Here, in this fictionalized biography, Claudius records the intrigue, lusts, perversions and bloodshed of the Imperial Roman households.
Considered an idiot because of his physical infirmities, Claudius survived the intrigues and poisonings of the reigns of Augustus, Tiberius, and the Mad Caligula to become emperor in 41 A.D. A masterpiece.
Robert Graves begins anew the tumultuous life of the Roman who became emporer in spite of himself. Captures the vitality, splendor, and decadence of the Roman world at the point of its decline.
