@booksmandala: You do not need a free weekend to read a classic. You need an afternoon. These ten are tiny, the kind of book you finish in one sitting and turn over in your head for weeks. Marcus Aurelius on staying steady. Lao Tzu on moving with the current. Dostoevsky on a single ridiculous, life-changing dream. Saadat Hasan Manto on freedom and the price of it. Big thinkers, small books, no intimidation required. Save this for the next time someone tells you they have no time to read. The full set, from Penguin Great Ideas and Penguin Archive, available at booksmandala.com.
