«Calígula» is the historical novel by Maria Grazia Siliato, published by Grijalbo Mondadori in hardback (494 pages, in Spanish).
The plot combines historical fiction and archaeological popularisation: two enormous ships, the largest of Antiquity, lie at the bottom of a small volcanic lake near Rome. From the discovery, the novel reconstructs Caligula's life from childhood and asks whether he deserves his reputation as mad and cruel or was a victim of his time.
The Spanish edition was published in 2006, translated by Teresa Clavel. Hardback format, 494 pages.
For readers of historical fiction and archaeological popularisation, with an interest in the Roman Empire and the figure of Caligula.
