'Because of his baldness and hairiness, he announced it was a
capital offence for anyone either to look down on him as he passed
or to mention goats in any context.' The biography of the brutal,
crazed and incestuous Roman Emperor Caligula, who tried to appoint
his own horse consul. Introducing Little Black Classics: 80 books
for Penguin's 80th birthday. Little Black Classics celebrate the
huge range and diversity of Penguin Classics, with books from
around the world and across many centuries. They take us from a
balloon ride over Victorian London to a garden of blossom in Japan,
from Tierra del Fuego to 16th-century California and the Russian
steppe. Here are stories lyrical and savage; poems epic and
intimate; essays satirical and inspirational; and ideas that have
shaped the lives of millions. Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus (c.70-130
CE). Suetonius's The Twelve Caesars is also available in Penguin
Classics.
