Relive the last day in Pompeii in this immersive story, based on the city's real residents

We all know how the people of Pompeii died.But what about how they lived?Drawing on the latest archaeological discoveries, Dr Jess Venner brings the ancient streets to life through the eyes of those who lived, worked, loved and ultimately met their fate in Pompeii.Amongst four others from all strata of society, we meet Julia Felix, a successful female entrepreneur defying Roman convention; Petrinus, a slave grappling with his future after gaining his freedom; and politician Gaius Cuspius Pansa, who cements his power and prestige by hosting the Plebian Games at the amphitheatre.Richly evocative and immersive, The Lost Voices of Pompeii vividly recreates the final twenty-four hours before the eruption, reminding us exactly what - and who - was lost in 79 AD.
