Questo autore approfondisce le complessità dell'esistenza umana attraverso la sua scrittura incisiva, esplorando spesso temi del Rinascimento e delle sue correnti intellettuali. La sua opera è caratterizzata da una profonda riflessione sulla vita e sulle scelte che facciamo, navigando frequentemente tra disperazione e speranza. Lo stile dell'autore è sia metaforico che narrativo, derivante da un percorso personale che è passato dalla pittura alla scrittura. Attraverso una narrazione avvincente, illumina il potere trasformativo dell'arte e della decisione personale.
A novel set in AD43 on the eve of the Roman invasion of Britain. After ten years being educated in Rome, Togidubnus of the Atrebates is sent back home, charged with convincing the Britons of the wisdom in submitting to the Empire. Trained in stoicism by Seneca himself, Togidubnus also thinks this is the wise course, until he is reunited with his people and homeland. This is a book about two worlds, Roman and Druid. Togidubnus is both. His journey across southern Britain leads him to sacred sanctuaries of the ancients, such as Bath, Avebury and White Horse Hill, and he becomes increasingly concerned about the fate of his people, their gods and spirits. As he struggles to keep the tribes out of the resistance being organized by the warlord Caratacus, he must reconcile opposing forces not only in the world but within himself.
