There's something that came up to my mind while i was reading this book, why didn't plato write it in such a form that it was more subtle? like, we know that the good city is an allegory to men's souls, yet he keeps talking about the soul itself throughout the book, wouldn't it be more aesthetically pleasing if he only wrote about the good city leaving it to us to conclude that he's talking about the soul and about individuals rather than just cities?

How the fuck do you force yourself to read for any longer than half an hour? At a certain point, I just can't read any more words. They don't even register. How do you focus?

how long have you been regularly reading? like anything else it is a skill that requires repetitiveness to improve. Your reading stamina should increase the more you read

just make the half hour mark your ten minute break, digest the material, then return for another half hour.

No work of 'fiction' is truly fictional. It may be fictional in our universe, but every 'fiction' corresponds perfectly to events in the history of one universe or another.
