Description
Julian is a richly detailed historical novel that recounts the life of Julian the Apostate, the Roman emperor who famously attempted to restore paganism and resist the rise of Christianity in the 4th century. Told through letters and memoirs of Julian and his contemporaries, Gore Vidal crafts a compelling and intellectual portrait of a complex figure torn between philosophy, power, and faith. The novel offers a thoughtful critique of religious dogma and explores the tension between classical wisdom and emerging orthodoxy, illuminating the turbulent crossroads of ancient civilization and spiritual transformation.
