About this audiobook
The Enchiridion or Manual of Epictetus is a short manual of Stoic ethical advice from the 2nd-century Greek Stoic philosopher Epictetus. The focus is on applying philosophy in daily life. The primary theme is that one should accept what happens. The Enchiridion, along with the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius and Seneca's Letters from a Stoic, is one of three key texts from which the modern world knows Stoicism.

Readers find this title to have nice writings with great lessons. However, some find the narrator's pronunciation annoying. The overall reading experience is considered fabulous.

Who and what the heck is: “Epic—too —tose?” That was so annoying to listen to in the intro...what a meme…
Fabulous reading, but Epictetus is pronounced as “Eh-pick-tee-tuus,” not “Eh-pick-too-tose.”1 person found this helpful

Nice writings! Great lessons! However, I would like to emphasised that I gave a 5 star for the writings and not for the narration, the narrator, it seems to me is in a tight space that he cannot wait to finish his narration
