Description: Gore Vidal's famous essay on Robert Grave's version of Suetonius' writings.
Gore Vidal : "Robert Graves and the Twelve Caesars" "Robert Graves and the Twelve Caesars" A little effete and even degenerate (but then I am a typical "20th century North American" in his eyes, I guess), Gore Vidal is an essayist of the highest rank, in my opinion. Below is an example of Vidal at his best - especially towards the end of his essay when he speaks of the ubiquitous tyranny of the post-WWII world.
