About the Author
Peter Stothard is the editor of the Times Literary Supplement and author of Alexandria and The Spartacus Road. From 1992 to 2002 he was the Editor of The Times. In 2012 he was chairman of the judges for the Man Booker Prize.
Review
“[An] artful blend of truth and fiction...Stothard’s poetically written, supremely stylish memoir only partly conceals its underlying mission, to insist that antiquity still has urgent things to tell us.”
- Emily Gowers, The Guardian
“A brilliant, haunting work from a modern master of memoir.”
- Mary Beard, bestselling author of SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome
“This thoughtful and unexpectedly moving memoir . . . brilliantly captures the excitement of the Thatcher years.”
- Richard Aldous, The Wall Street Journal
“This unconventional account of the Margaret Thatcher years by a former editor of the Times of London mixes reminiscence, gossip, and classical philosophy. ”
- The New Yorker
“Clever, insightful, and highly entertaining.”
- Aram Bakshian Jr., The National Interest
“In his witty, luminous and perceptive The Senecans, at once an entertainment and an education on the themes of personality and power, Peter Stothard presents Margaret Thatcher as we’ve never seen her before.”
- Sir Harold Evans
“[An] elegiac memoir of the Tories' heady heyday in the 1980s among the court of Margaret Thatcher . . . The author contemplates the passing of his brilliant, disputatious friends and mourns an entire era.”
- Kirkus Reviews
