Totally bowled over that ‘Justinian’ has won the London Hellenic Prize against stiff competition from over 150 wonderful entrants! It is a huge honour to be reckoned alongside such past winners as @19Averil , Mark Mazower, Peter Parsons et al. Amazing news!

Peter Sarris' "Justinian: Emperor, Soldier, Saint" (@BasicBooksUK) is the winner of this year's London Hellenic Prize. Warmest congratulations to @peter_sarris for a brilliant biography of one of the most controversial emperors of Byzantium!

It looks like a Greek translation of Justinian will be forthcoming (Dutch, Spanish, Turkish, Chinese and others in press). I am sure he would have approved!
