Set in the late Roman Republic, Arthur Koestler's 'The Gladiators' tells the story of the revolt of Spartacus and man's search for Utopia. The novel explores the debate over whether the end justifies the means, a recurring theme in Koestler's works. This Vintage Classics edition features a new introduction and redesigned cover.
