«Calígula» is the historical novel by Paul-Jean Franceschini and Pierre Lunel, published by Ediciones B in hardcover (380 pages, in Spanish).
The work recreates the rise of Gaius Caesar Germanicus, known as Caligula, to the throne of Rome in AD 37. It shows a cultured man insecure about his physique, dominated by passions such as theater and his sister Drusilla. His brutality, his arbitrary acts and his ambition to be worshipped as a god unleash Rome's hatred while a conspiracy against him takes shape.
The translation is by Dolors Gallart; the work belongs to the Histórica collection of Ediciones B and was published in 2004.
For readers of historical fiction and popular works on imperial Rome, interested in characters marked by ambition and controversy.
