Theodora: Actress, Empress, Whore Book

'Justinian took a wife: and the manner she was born and bred and wedded to this man tore up the Roman Empire by the very roots' Procopius Charming charismatic heroic ? Theodora of Constantinople rose from nothing to become the most powerful woman in the history of Byzantine Rome. In Stella Duffy's breathtaking new novel she comes to life again ? a fascinating controversial and seductive woman. Some called her a saint. Others were not so kind...When her father is killed the young Theodora is forced into near slavery to survive. But just as she learns to control her body as a dancer and for the men who can afford her so she is determined to shape a very different fate for herself. From the vibrant streets and erotic stage shows of sixth century Constantinople to the holy desert retreats of Alexandria Theodora is an extraordinary imaginative achievement from one of our finest writers.Read More
