The Last Days of Socrates: Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, Phaedo by Plato
4.0
A very nice thematically-linked string of dialogues that detail the final few conversations of Socrates. Riddled with clever thoughts, human misunderstandings, blunt humor, and expertly characterization. Plato is a master writer.
"I don't know what effect my accusers have had on you, men of Athens, but I can tell you they almost made even me forget where I was, so convincingly did they speak. But when it comes to the truth, they've said virtually nothing."
