i just learned mary renault was gay and i feel like my third eye just snapped wide open. like, duh; only a fellow lesbian could get me to enjoy a politics-heavy historical novel about the peloponnesian war.

i know this is like a serious story about war and an impressive display of renault's knowledge of ancient greek culture but sokrates playing matchmaker to these two idiots for an entire chapter is soooo funny to me
