Orgy Planner Wanted: Odd Jobs and Curious Careers in the Ancient World.

by Vicki Leon

RRP $34.95

Two thousand years ago, the denizens of the ancient Greek and Roman worlds performed an amazingly diverse and challenging array of tasks to earn their daily bread.

Personal entrail-reader to the emperor war-elephant troop commander mopper-up of dead gladiators armpit-hair plucker stage actor orgy planner: these are just a few of the career opportunities that beckoned for our ancient Mediterranean ancestors.

In Orgy Planner Wanted, author Vicki Leon describes - in uniquely vivid and energetic style 150 ancient career options, from the glittering to the gory, and from the strangely familiar to the entirely strange and entirely unfamiliar.

Each of the book's ten chapters focuses on a particular professional area - from sex to showbiz, from cookery to slavery and from divination to hairdressing - looking in detail at specific jobs in each category. Sidebar profiles tell the stories of some 30 named jobholders - the likes of Spurrina Vestricius (personal entrail-reader to Julius Caesar), Publius and Lucius Sestius (traders in garum - a pungent fish-based forerunner of Worcestershire sauce), and Paris (a celebrated actor-dancer whose abortive attempts to teach the Emperor Nero to dance would ultimately lead to his demise).

Orgy Planner Wanted offers a unique perspective on the world as it was 2000 years ago.
