my husband, a philosophy buff, wonders which plato dialogue this is - the apology?

Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, and Phaedo.

Quote:

Yes. It's the title given to the latter work, I think, in the Penguin Classics edition, and maybe elsewhere too. Apparently, we're too thick to understand that the word "apology" has meanings other than that of showing contrition.

I missed your attitude in my time away, Prometheus

It is kind of a misleading title, in some ways. How is The First Circle?

Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson, although it has been slow-going because I also have to read stuff for my classes.

I assumed it was all from Apologia, but perhaps you'd know better than me.

TFC is hilarious, tragic, poignant, informative and, I think, cautionary. I just posted an amusing quote from the work in the thread entitled "Post a Quote from a Book You're Reading". Page 9.

Emma, Charlotte Brontë, 1855

This manuscript, a rough pencil draft of about 7,000 words in two chapters, was Charlotte Brontë's last attempt to begin a new work of fiction after Villette in 1854, and the deaths of her three siblings in 1848-1849.
