Ancient Rome, eh? Should be fun. Thanks! ATM I'm trying to plow through Otto Rank's Art and Artist, but finding it's not quite a suitable read on the commuter train. I had to put down David Hume's A Treatise on Human Nature for the same reason. I guess hardcore philosophy and uncomfortable public transport rides don't mix. Too many distractions.
