Stoicism Book Recommendations

For people interested in Stoicism, I can recommend the book Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. There are a couple of very accessible English translations (the original text must be in Latin). The book is basically a collection of many thoughts that are roughly one sentence to a page long and self-contained. So you can read it any way you like, in any order. There are some really inspiring thoughts in the book, though some of them might be difficult to relate to since things have changed quite a bit

I'd actually suggest Montaigne, if you haven't touched him already; this is a good intro:http://www.amazon.com/How-Live-Montaigne-Question-Attempts/d...

Seconding your recommendation of At The Existentialist Café.

I’m not the original poster, but I recommend Meditations by Marcus Aurelius highly.I’d also check out A Guide to the Good Life by William Irvine, it’s an overview and a much less tedious read (wrote this century, haha).

This might also be a good time to pitch the 'Meditations' by Marcus Aurelius again (a time-honoured classic that pops up very often in HN discussions). I cannot stress how much insight is contained in this book---it may help you achieve a healthy detachment from these things.

There were many similar threads on HN in the past, and my recommendation is always the same: "The problems of philosophy" by Bertrand Russellhttps://www.gutenberg.org/files/5827/5827-h/5827-h.htm
