Aprašymas
"Would you like to become a god? This is perfectly doable."
So starts this fascinating glimpse into the minds of Julius Caesar and his two great opponents, Cicero and Cato the Younger, written in the award winning brisk style imitating Caesar's own. A portrait of the overwhelming drive to power on the one hand and the heart-wrenching moral compromise on the other.
A great critical success when it first appeared in 1961, the book was soon banned by the communist regime because it portrayed too accurately the techniques by which a dictatorship manufactures consent. Eventually published in a dozen languages, and on account of its style considered by many a modern classic, it appears in English only now.
