Klaudiusz i Messalina
ISBN: 9788311165557 / Polski / broszurowa / 2022 / 540 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. To kontynuacja sławnej powieści historycznej Roberta Gravesa Ja, Klaudiusz. Tytułowy bohater miał już 51 lat, gdy po zamordowaniu Kaliguli w 41 roku n.e. niespodziewanie został wyniesiony do godności cesarza Rzymu. Ułomności fizyczne - to, że się jąkał, utykał na nogę, ślinił i miał tiki nerwowe - sprawiły, iż przetrwał liczne spiski i morderstwa, które przerzedziły ród cesarski. Jego żoną była Messalina, kobieta obdarzona nienasyconym temperamentem seksualnym i skłonnością do intryg. Klaudiusz długo tolerował jej wybryki, ale nadszedł czas, gdy musiał...

King Jesus
ISBN: 9780141197654 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Robert Graves's controversial historical novel is a bold reworking of the story of Christ. Here Jesus is not the son of God, but the result of a secret marriage - the descendant of Herod and true King of the Jews. Written from the perspective of a lowly official at the end of the first century AD, King Jesus recounts Jesus's birth, youth, life as a charismatic 'wonder worker' and the unorthodox, bitter nature of his death and resurrection. Portraying Jesus not as divine but as a flawed human bent upon his own doom, this retelling of the gospels is a compelling blend of research, imagination...

Goodbye to All That
ISBN: 9780141184593 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 dni roboczych. An autobiographical work that describes firsthand the great tectonic shifts in English society following the First World War, Robert Graves's Goodbye to All That is a matchless evocation of the Great War's haunting legacy, published in Penguin Modern Classics. In 1929 Robert Graves went to live abroad permanently, vowing 'never to make England my home again'.

Ja, Klaudiusz
ISBN: 9788311164901 / Polski / broszurowa / 2022 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Matka nazywała go monstrum stworzonym, lecz nie dokończonym przez naturę. Babka, Liwia, odnosiła się doń z pogardą. August wolał nie pokazywać się z nim publicznie, choć dostrzegał jego zalety. Przez pół wieku Klaudiusz, kulawy jąkała uważany za półgłówka, ale człowiek uczciwy, prawy i lojalny, pozostawał w cieniu, aż przypadek zrządził, że został cesarzem. Tylko on przetrwał wszystkie spiski i zbrodnie, które kolejno zabierały członków jego rodziny.

Sergeant Lamb of the Ninth
ISBN: 9780141197685 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Robert Graves first came across the name of Roger Lamb in 1914, when Graves was an English officer instructing his platoon in regimental history. Lamb was a British soldier who had served his king during the American War of Independence, and whose claim to a footnote in history is that he managed to escape twice from American prison camps. When Graves went to America in the 1930s, he remembered Sergeant Lamb, investigated his story and created this fictionalized memoir telling Lamb's story from his Irish childhood to war and revolution, weaving a mesmerizing tale of courage and adventure.
