«António» is the historical novel by Allan Massie, published by Gradiva in paperback (236 pages, in Portuguese).
On the brink of ruin, Mark Antony dictates his memoirs to his secretary Critias, who adds a caustic commentary while Antony recalls his struggle with Octavian for control of Rome after Caesar's assassination, his passion for Cleopatra, and his obsession with the East. A tragicomedy of ambition, passion, and self-indulgence.
Final installment of Allan Massie's Roman Quartet. Original title: «Antony» (1997); this Portuguese edition was published in 2002.
Recommended for readers with Portuguese proficiency who enjoy historical fiction set in ancient Rome.
