  What if the stranger haunting your life… was you? 
  The Double is Fyodor Dostoevsky’s unnerving exploration of psychological breakdown, obsession, and the split self.  
  When Yakov Golyadkin, an anxious, low-level bureaucrat, encounters a man identical to him in appearance but opposite in personality, his world begins to unravel. This double not only infiltrates his life but begins to replace him in every way. 
  What follows is a disturbing and poignant descent into paranoia, self-loathing, and existential dread. Is the double a supernatural force, a projection of suppressed desires, or a symptom of madness? 
  What you’ll discover inside: 
  - A Chilling Psychological Drama – A tale of identity theft by one's own reflection. 
  - Themes of Madness and Alienation – A haunting look at isolation and the fractured mind. 
  - A Timeless Parable of Inner Conflict – Dostoevsky’s enduring insight into self and sanity. 
  - A Modern Translation – Updated for clarity while staying true to the original vision. 
  Join Golyadkin on his haunting journey and decide for yourself—who is the real man, and who is the shadow?

  Plato of Athens - A Life in...

  Considered by many to be the most important philosopher ever, Plato was born into a well-to-do family in wartime Athens at the end of the fifth century BCE. He finally decided to go into politics, but became disillusioned, especially after the Athenians condemned his teacher, Socrates, to death. He began teaching in his twenties and later founded the Academy, the world's first higher-educational research and teaching establishment. Eventually, he returned to practical politics and spent a considerable amount of time and energy trying to create a constitution for Syracuse in Sicily that would reflect and perpetuate some of his political ideals. The attempts failed, and Plato's disappointment can be traced in some of his later political works. 
   
   
   
  In his lifetime and after, Plato was considered almost divine. This led to the invention of many tall tales about him-both by those who adored him and his detractors. In this first ever full-length portrait of Plato, Robin Waterfield steers a judicious course among these stories, debunking some while accepting the kernels of truth in others. He explains why Plato chose to write dialogues rather than treatises and gives an overview of the subject matter of all of Plato's books. Clearly and engagingly written throughout, Plato of Athens is the perfect introduction to the man and his work.
