    I, in turn, haven't read her Tiberius. The problem I think is that each chapter seems to be a separate thesis, so the book is non-linear. The details are wonderful, but I found myself trying to fit events from one chapter with their consequences in later chapters (and vice versa unfortunately). I can't get a clear sense of how the history unfolds.

    Yes! I love the Apocolocyntosis and think a dramatization was a great idea. It certainly lends itself to it.
