Publisher's Summary

Letters from a Stoic is collection of 124 letters which were written by Seneca at the end of his life, during his retirement, and written after he had worked for the Emperor Nero for 15 years. They are addressed to Lucilius, the then procurator of Sicily.

The letters highlight many moral and ethical ways to live, and address many of the issues known to man, about life and death.

Each letter has been carefully adapted into modern English to allow for easy listening and understanding.

This is the complete volume containing all 124 letters.

Enjoy!

Poor Narration- Choose Penguin or Ferriss

Narrator is difficult to like after the first ten minutes. The changes in pace and almost no emphasis on any words is beyond odd and poorly produced.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
