On Living and Dying Well

In this Penguin Classic audiobook, John Hastings performs the philosophical treatises of Marcus Tullius Cicero, an influential orator and statesman from the first century BC. Covering topics such as friendship, religion, and the nature of death, Cicero offers a pragmatic approach grounded in personal and ethical reflection. This new translation by Thomas Habinek makes Cicero's profound ideas on social ties and creativity accessible to contemporary listeners.
