Bruce MacQueen, in his novel Caesar’s Wife Must Be Above Suspicion, has achieved a remarkable melding of detailed period historical fact and lively engaging fiction in this clever speculative work that grew out of a seemingly simple question: “What if the assassination attempt on Julius Caesar in 44 BCE failed?” The cast of characters (save one) are all historical and will be familiar to readers of history or philosophy (or viewers of plays, television, and film productions for that matter)—Caesar, Antony, Sallust, Cicero, Cato, and more. MacQueen brings them all vividly and dynamically to life through his expertise as a writer and as a professor of Classics. Here is a work that the reader can simply dive into and enjoy while being adeptly educated, entertained, and enlightened in every paragraph. Bravo, Bruce MacQueen, and here’s to one or more sequels!
