'Mark Anthony is a stupid ass' was my tactful way of expressing my death wishes. I didn't feel comfortable posting it, though, given how hurt I was over people expressing similar wishes for Cicero.
There's been some interesting debate over whether Brutus' death was 'suicide by legion' in a way. But I think as with Cicero, the spirit was honorable.
I haven't picked it up yet! It's due out in paperback soon - I skimmed through the first few pages and I'm not all that taken with his prose, but it's Cicero! I'll read it regardless.
