A great work of literature and a profound reflection on state terror from a man who spent forty years fighting one.
Tiberius Caesar--a free standing work in its own right--completes Bocheński's Notorious Roman Trilogy--probably the most important literary work to come out of Eastern Europe since World War II.
After the picaresque volume 1, Divine Julius (how to overthrow a republic in four easy steps) and the poetic volume 2, Naso the Poet (how, under tyranny, poetry can get you into trouble), comes volume three, Tiberius Caesar: a horrifying tale of the second emperor of Rome: the man who normalized political terror.
A brilliant work of literature, with deeply moving passages of beautiful prose, many of which would stand as independent essays:
If you enjoy the rich prose of writers like Kazuo Ishiguro or Orhan Pamuk, the style of this book will astonish and delight you..
And if, in your pleasant and secure life in a Western, constitutional democracy you have grown complacent and bored with all the freedoms you take for granted--you should read this as a warning. Because you should be afraid. You should be very afraid. If you lose your democracy, this is what you will have.
This is a very beautiful and a very important book. Don't miss it. Pick up your copy today.
