The Republic by Plato
5.0
4.5 stars
i cried. i laughed. i fell asleep on numerous occasions. i was confused. i felt mildly insulted especially during book10. overall, a compelling read. would i recommend this to the faint of heart? never. only the bravest can handle socrates describing what kind of public toilets should be instated in the ideal republic. just kidding he didn’t do that. or did he? i wouldn’t put it past him.
