Like every Walton book, strange and engrossing more than good. I never walk away from one without it taking up permanent shelf space in my head, but I never could quite say I enjoy myself. This is the most effectively I have ever been tricked into reading a lot of Classical philosophy, so there's that.
Graphic: Sexual assault and Slavery
