Robert Harris
Agrippa: Power, Ambition and the Birth of an Empire
International bestselling master of historical fiction Robert Harris (Fatherland, Pompeii, Conclave) joins HistoryExtra’s Dave Musgrove to discuss his new smash-hit thriller, Agrippa. Set against the backdrop of Imperial Rome, the novel explores the life and times of Marcus Agrippa, close ally of Augustus, who helped him take on the titans of antiquity and win – ultimately ruling the Western world together for twenty years. Don’t miss this evening with one of the world’s finest storytellers as he discusses the eternal mechanics of propaganda and power, untangling fact and fiction and what the classical world can teach us about politics today.
