One of the great triumphs of contemporary historical literature, The Times is a monumental work of political and historical fiction. Authored by the renowned Cicero, this trilogy delves into the life and career of the Roman statesman Marcus Tullius Cicero, spanning from his youthful ambitions as a lawyer to his tragic demise over thirty years later. Pursued by an assassination squad on a cliff-top path, Cicero's extraordinary journey is recounted by his private secretary, Tiro, through a series of law cases, speeches, elections, conspiracies, rivalries, and the enigmatic personality of Cicero himself. Spanning more than ten years in the writing, The Cicero Trilogy is now published in a single volume for the first time, offering a vivid portrayal of the Roman republic's grandeur, ambition, and corruption. It also explores the tumultuous collapse of democratic institutions, serving as a cautionary tale for our own time.
