About this listen

Apology is a philosophical dialogue written by Plato, chronicling the trial of Socrates. In this work, Socrates defends himself against charges of corrupting the youth and impiety, ultimately leading to his conviction and execution. Despite his defense, Socrates remains steadfast in his commitment to truth and virtue, refusing to compromise his beliefs even in the face of death.

The sample didn't give it away - I should say, I didn't listen closely enough to the sample - but this narration is read out by a computer voice that modulates some words slightly but is otherwise a monotone. Sometimes it even says 'dot' at the end of a sentance. I found it extremely difficult to listen to. Fortunately this essay is only 85 min long so I persevered but now I feel like I need to buy a better version. Save yourself some money and get a copy with better quality narration.
