'The one 'fact' that everyone knows about Emperor Nero is that he fiddled while Rome burned.
But now, adopting the often ribald voice of Titus Petronius, Nero's pleasure-loving Advisor on Taste, David Wishart gives us a vivid and engaging fictional biography of the notorious Roman emperor that combines historical facts with fiction, comedy with tragedy.' (quote, back of book)
