I can not recommend Xenophon's Anabasis (AKA March Of The Ten Thousand) enough. I'm rereading it for the fourth time, in less than 2 years. There's a variety of themes: - political intrigue;
- religion;
- moral, ethics;
- companionship;
- brotherhood; etc. Xenophon is eloquent and straight to the point, I really like his approach in this narration. Now, on the topic of "rereading", I've often thought that maybe I should (have) read other books; that perhaps I was "spending too much time" in one book, but I just don't care enough to ruminate on this thought, and besides, there's always something new to learn from it. Concurrently I'm reading "Crime & Punishment", which I also recommend. |
