In How to Grow Old, the esteemed Roman orator Cicero offers insightful and encouraging perspectives on aging, countering fears about declining libido, health, and mental acuity. Originally titled On Old Age, this timeless classic has captivated thinkers for centuries with its practical wisdom and affirmations that later life can be fulfilling and joyful, often highlighting the pleasures found in activities like reading and gardening. Presented in a fresh translation, this audiobook invites listeners to reconsider society's obsession with youth and embrace the richness of getting older.
