The plot to save Socrates
Paul Levinson beat me to it. Can’t wait to read this book!
Amazon blurb from Publisher’s Weekly:
In this light, engaging time-travel yarn, Levinson (The Silk Code) ponders the problem of saving someone who refuses to be saved, in this case Socrates, the Athenian philosopher condemned to death in a shameful moment for democracy. Inspired by a newly discovered dialogue of Socrates in which he’s offered escape by time travel, Sierra Waters, classics grad student in 2042, joins her professor, Thomas O’Leary, in a quest to return to the past.
