Beskrivelse

It is the ancient Greek philosopher Socrates' last day before he voluntarily drinks the hemlock that will end his life.

Away from Socrates' prison cell, other things are being planned. God (himself) is concerned with the performance of his creative and almost-all-perceiving operative gGod. To remedy this he charges gGod with a special project to ensure that Socrates experiences the best and most enlightening last day of life possible.

Using gGod's roughly assembled time machine, and with the help of the trusty interface IgnatiusM, Socrates perceives varied scenarios that challenge his ethical and metaphysical understanding.

Questioning and a new way of viewing time lead the story which is 'Project Socrates', Who knows what will be the conclusion?

The Last Day of Socrates blends moving stories and humorous characterisation with solid and cleverly worked philosophical reflections. A humorous romp--unique, imaginative, absorbing, and thought-provoking!
