This satirical novel, written in the 1st century CE by the Roman author Petronius, offers a colorful and irreverent portrait of life in ancient Rome. Through the misadventures of the protagonist Encolpius and his companions, the book satirizes the decadence, corruption, and hypocrisy of Roman society.
