26) Timaeus and Critias by Plato for those interested in the story of Atlantis, this is the primary source from which all other mentions of the fabled island that disappeared into the sea derive from. Originally written in two parts, but because they are similar are often put together in modern re-printings. Timaeus is Plato’s writings on the creation of the universe as well as the nature of the physical and eternal world. Critias, is the description of the rise and fall of Atlantis and often seen as a allegory to the hubris of nations. Not a very light read if you were hoping for it to be and certainly for me who is capable of reading books that most people find not enticing this was a hard one even for me to really persevere with still, it is interesting enough.
