Breakfast with Seneca by David Fideler
The first clear and faithful guide to the timeless, practical teachings of the Stoic philosopher Seneca
"Reading Breakfast with Seneca is like sitting down for a good cup of coffee with a wise and compassionate friend" -- Eric Weiner, author of The Socrates Express
"This book is the perfect antidote to the commercialism and superficial values of modern times. [Fideler] channels Seneca without distortion and makes him accessible to the twenty-first-century reader." -- Robin Waterfield, translator of Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus
"[A] great introduction to both Seneca and Stoicism and will even help those already familiar with these writings to gain more benefit from them." -- Donald Robertson, author of How to Think Like a Roman Emperor
"The most companionable of the new Stoic books." -- Molly Young - The New York Times
"In Breakfast with Seneca [David Fideler] explains his habit of poring over the Roman philosopher with his morning coffee and omelette. Writing with charm and clarity, he argues that Seneca’s philosophy can help us ‘live a happy, flourishing life’." -- Emily Thomas - The Times Literary Supplement
