About the Book

DESPUÉS DE JULIO CÉSAR, EL MUNDO NUNCA VOLVIÓ A SER EL MISMO.

Si alguna vez hubo un hombre nacido para cambiar el curso de la Historia, ese fue Julio César. Su leyenda, veinte siglos después, sigue más viva que nunca.

Roma, año 77 a.C. El cruel senador Dolabela va a ser juzgado por corrupción, pero ha contratado a los mejores abogados, ha comprado al jurado y, además, es conocido por usar la violencia contra todos los que se enfrentan a él. Nadie se atreve a ser el fiscal, hasta que de pronto, contra todo pronóstico, un joven patricio de tan solo veintitrés años acepta llevar la acusación, defender al pueblo de Roma y desafiar el poder de las élites. El nombre del desconocido abogado es Cayo Julio César.

Combinando con maestría un exhaustivo rigor histórico y una capacidad narrativa extraordinaria, Santiago Posteguillo logra sumergir al lector en el fragor de las batallas, hacerle caminar por las calles más peligrosas mientras los sicarios de los senadores acechan en cualquier esquina, vivir la gran historia de amor de Julio César con Cornelia, su primera esposa, y comprender, en definitiva, cómo fueron los orígenes del hombre tras el mito.

Hay personajes que cambian la historia del mundo, pero también hay momentos que cambian la vida de esos personajes. Roma soy yo es el relato de los extraordinarios sucesos que marcaron el destino de César.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

AFTER JULIUS CAESAR, THE WORLD WAS NEVER THE SAME.

If there was ever a man born to change the course of History, that was Julius Caesar. His legend, twenty centuries later, is more alive than ever.

Rome, year 77 b.C. Cruel Senator Dolabella is about to be judged for corruption, but he has hired the best lawyers, has bought the jury, and, besides, is known for the use of violence against anyone who opposes him. No man dares accept the role of prosecutor, until all of a sudden and against all odds, a young Patrician of mere twenty-three years of age accepts to lead the case, defend the people of Rome, and defy the power of the elite class. This unknown lawyer's name is Caius Julius Caesar.

Masterfully combining an exhaustive historical rigor with extraordinary narrative skills, Santiago Posteguillo is able to submerge his readers in the thick of battle, make them walk through the most dangerous streets where the Senate's henchmen lurk in every corner, live the great love story of Julius Caesar and Cornelia, his first wife, and finally understand the origins of the man behind the myth.

There are characters that change the history of the world, but there are also moments that change the lives of such characters. I Am Rome tells the extraordinary events that marked Caesar's fate.
