+title: Books Read in 2023
+date: January 31, 2024
+---
+<p>
+Figured I should write this before January is over, so that I can claim I
+published it just after the year turned over.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Well, turns out, reading-wise, 2023 was the year of Plato. As mentioned back in
+<a href="<%= path_to 'blog_books-read-in-2021' %>">the 2021 list</a>, I've set
+out on reading through his works. At this point I'm about half-way through. I
+didn't know what I was getting myself into when I first opened up the
+collection, but I have to say I'm really enjoying myself.  Not only are Plato's
+words worthy of pondering and contrasting with modern thought, they're also
+entertaining. Ideas that shaped over two millenia of philosophy are interspersed
+with wit, humor, sometimes even sharp sarcasm.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Anyways, here's the list of dialogues I got through last year:
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<ol>
+  <li> Parmenides </li>
+  <li> The Sophist </li>
+  <li> The Statesman </li>
+  <li> Philebus </li>
+  <li> Symposium </li>
+  <li> Phaedrus </li>
+  <li> Alcibiades </li>
+  <li> Second Alcibiades </li>
+  <li> Hipparchus </li>
+  <li> Rival Lovers </li>
+  <li> Theages </li>
+  <li> Charmides </li>
+  <li> Lysis </li>
+  <li> Protagoras </li>
+  <li> Gorgias </li>
+</ol>
+</p>
