: I just read "A Man in Full", by Tom Wolffe, and I thought : that you could find intresting that Wolffe is : the reason because I ended up typing the name of this : (now I know) great philosopher in a web searcher. : In Wolffe's novel, an inocent man goes to prison, : leaving his pregnant wife alone with their other child. : To avoid jail, this man most plead guilty, though he's : not, and somehow, he just can't stand that. So now he's : in jail and he is expecting a copy of a book he ordered : by mail, something called "The stoics game of..." or something : but instead, thanks to a mistake, he gets a copy of : "The Stoics", by Epictetus, and suddenly he finds himself : enlightened, and a link is grown between this working : cl man of today in the US and this greek philosopher : born before Christ.
