| Summary | "Hear Me, Pilate!" by LeGette Blythe is a historical novel written in the early 1960s. This compelling tale explores the intricate lives of characters during the Roman Empire, particularly focusing on Claudia, the granddaughter of Augustus, and Longinus, a centurion. The book delves into themes of love, power, and political intrigue as it unfolds in the era of Tiberius and the tumultuous relationships surrounding him. The opening of the novel sets the stage with Claudia engaging in a conversation with Longinus in her lavishly furnished home in Rome. As they navigate topics such as her tumultuous family history and the dangerous political landscape, their chemistry hints at a deepening relationship. Claudia reflects on her status as a divorced woman and the societal expectations placed upon her, making her desire for freedom and love palpable. Meanwhile, Longinus learns of his forthcoming assignment to Palestine, which will intertwine their fates further as the story progresses, creating tension between personal emotions and the often harsh realities of political ambition.
