Caesar's Wife

Jean Millington

Long has history been voiced and inked by those in power. More often than not, men in power. ‎Ancient Rome, with its dictators and senators, mad philosophers and stoics, was no different.‎
The tallest and most decorated of mighty Rome's generals, Caesar, was felled to his knees by none ‎other than his own. Only one person tried to rescue him from terrible Fate. Calpurnia, Caesar's wife ‎at the time of his death, for so long relegated to the shadows, lives and breathes the events that lead ‎to the Ides of March. Starting from that fateful day, when at seven years of age she spots the ‎statesman at a funeral, Calpurnia loves and waits in the shadows, patient and faithful to her ‎philandering husband.‎
This is the infamous tale of Caesar, relived and told by Calpurnia. But make no mistake, this is ‎her story.‎
