The life story of the Roman Emperor Claudius is portrayed here in a semi-factual and personal context.
Concealed from public life until the age of 49 by his family because of his peculiar physical characteristics, such as a lisp and various nervous tics, Claudius is a historical figure who Graves conveys interestingly and sympathetically. Using the premise of a secret autobiography, he presents an inside view of Claudius’ thoughts, and makes intriguing and entertaining speculations about his private life, politics and personality.
