About this audiobook

"Lysis" is a dialogue by Plato that explores the nature of friendship and the qualities that make it valuable. The dialogue is named after the main character, a young boy named Lysis, and is narrated by Socrates. Socrates encounters Lysis and his friend Menexenus, and begins to question them about the nature of their friendship. Lysis and Menexenus struggle to define what makes their friendship valuable, and Socrates suggests that perhaps they are not true friends if they cannot articulate why they enjoy each other's company. Read in English, unabridged.
