A two-thousand year old classic that continues to find new fans in the digital age, On the Shortness of Life is a Stoic Philosophy masterpiece and, perhaps, the first and greatest of self-help books. Packed with pithy timeless wisdom, Seneca's famous collection of letters to his father-in-law Paulinus is a short but powerful work, one of Western literature's finest and most enduring answers to the eternal question, How should I best live my life?

Seneca

Seneca, full name Lucius Annaeus Seneca, was a Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman, and playwright, best known for his moral essays, letters, and tragedies. He was born around 4 BCE and died in 65 CE. Seneca's work is an important part of Stoic philosophy, a school of thought that emphasizes virtue, wisdom, and the development of self-control to live a good life.
