A solid 8. Always a good re-read. Ward's translation—

—is a good guiding light for modern prose style.

Not giving a clear answer on whether the guy killed that other guy due to the sun was meh.

sort of weird and nothing makes sense until the very end then you have to go back and read it all over again to enjoy the details you thought were not important but really were the point all along.

Overall 8/10
Genre 10/10

It's really short so there's no excuse to not read it yourself.

I always figured it was about how everyone judges all your previous actions by that one act you don't know why you did. As identity politics goes it's pretty good

6, it stands out as a blend of literature and philosophical thought, but taken separately its parts aren't that top notch
