The Symposium by Plato (English Version) - Norris Book

What is love? To find out, Plato takes us to a lively banquet in Ancient Athens where a group of intellectuals, poets, and a very famous philosopher named Socrates decide to have a friendly competition. Instead of just drinking, each guest must give a speech praising "Eros," the god of love.

As the night goes on and the wine flows, the speeches evolve from simple romantic stories to mind-bending theories. You’ll hear the famous myth about humans being split in half and searching for their "other side," and you’ll follow Socrates as he argues that love is actually a ladder—starting with an attraction to beautiful bodies but eventually leading the soul toward the ultimate beauty of truth itself.

It is a witty, dramatic, and deeply profound exploration of why we long for connection and what it truly means to love someone.
