How to Die: An Ancient Guide to the End of Life by Lucius Annaeus Seneca
5.0
Surprisingly gentle and colloquial for such macabre content. “A life lived without the courage to die is slavery.”
The chosen highlights from Seneca’s work and letters allow of a great breadth of understanding regarding his stoicism. Despite the occasional gore and encouragement to embrace death, it feels empowering and optimistic.
