このコンテンツについて
Roman historian Procopius publicly praised Theodora of Constantinople for her piety-while secretly detailing her salacious stage act and maligning her as ruthless and power hungry. So who was this woman who rose from humble beginnings as a dancer to become the empress of Rome and a saint in the Orthodox Church? Award-winning novelist Stella Duffy vividly recreates the life and times of a woman who left her mark on one of the ancient world's most powerful empires. Theodora: Actress, Empress, Whore is a sexy, captivating novel that resurrects an extraordinary, little-known figure from the dusty pages of history.

"Theodora is a best-of-all-worlds book - entertaining, gripping, thoughtful and dangerously enlightening. Stella Duffy, a versatile and gifted novelist, is uniquely suited to bringing Theodora to life. She clearly has great affection for her subject, but does not allow that to undercut her keen eye and pitch-perfect ear. An achievement that many writers will envy and few will equal." (Laura Lippman, New York Times best-selling author of What the Dead Know)
"Duffy's seductive retelling of the story of the legendary empress Theodora will delight historical fiction fans." (Publishers Weekly)
"Duffy's retelling of the true story of a woman (500-548) who rose from lowly beginnings to become empress of the Byzantine Empire is lively and dramatic." (Library Journal)
