Best-selling Spanish novelist Santiago Posteguillo has written extensively about Ancient Rome, first in a trilogy about the Republic, and most recently in another trilogy about the life of Trajan. Posteguillo, who teaches English Literature, has also explored the secrets of forgotten and maudit writers in his last book, El séptimo círculo del infierno (The Seventh Circle of Hell). He discusses these and other aspects of his work with Ana Gavín, bringing to a literary close this year’s Hay Festival Segovia.
