«El joven César» is the historical novel by Rex Warner, published by Edhasa in paperback (290 pages, in Spanish).
Julius Caesar recalls in the first person his youth, the least known stage of his biography: his first steps in the politics of a turbulent Rome. The novel combines history, memoirs and fiction to show how a young man apparently without a future, nephew of the dictator Marius, prepares to occupy a central place in Roman power.
It is the first installment of the Caesar series and number 120 of the Pocket collection, translated by Marta Álvarez Toledo.
Recommended for readers of historical fiction interested in Republican Rome and the figure of Julius Caesar.
Reginald "Rex" Ernest Warner was an English classicist, writer, and translator who is best remembered for The Aerodrome (1941). Warner was described by V. S. Pritchett as "the only outstanding novelist of ideas whom the decade of ideas produced".
