For Professor Patrick Dolan, philosophy isn’t just an academic subject-it’s a way of life. Teaching at a small Midwestern college, he encourages his students to question everything, from the status quo to their own beliefs. But when a ghost from his past resurfaces in the form of a long-lost letter, Patrick is forced to examine his own life in ways he never expected.Torn between the radical ideals of his youth and the pragmatism of his present, Patrick embarks on a journey back to the turbulent 1960s-a time of protests, campus revolutions, and a love that slipped through his fingers. As he reconnects with old friends and relives memories buried for decades, he must confront the choices that defined him, the sacrifices he made, and the truths he ran from.Witty, thought-provoking, and deeply reflective, Blame It on Socrates is a compelling exploration of philosophy, nostalgia, and the weight of unfinished business. In the end, Patrick must decide: Can he continue teaching others how to examine their lives if he refuses to examine his own?Perfect for readers who enjoy campus novels, personal reckonings, and stories that bridge the past and present with intelligence and heart.
