Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Jonathan Todd Ross’s narration breathes life into Clodia’s tale, making her story feel both immediate and timeless. His rich vocal range perfectly captures the complexity of Clodia’s character, painting a portrait that challenges the one-dimensional depiction in Cicero’s speeches. The pacing is deliberate yet engaging, ensuring listeners stay hooked from beginning to end. However, at times the narrative can feel overly reliant on academic jargon, which might slow down those less familiar with Roman history. Despite this, 'Clodia of Rome' offers a compelling reevaluation of an iconic figure in ancient Roman society, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in historical biographies and the struggles of powerful women in antiquity.
