@hareem01

I tried reading it and gave up after few pages.

it’s for men ..and for evil men only

the introduction is …

Cromwell read it, Napoleon Bonaparte carried his copy into battle with him, and Adolf Hitler claimed to read it in bed. The Prince is the first realpolitik treatise, the first non-idealistic guide to statecraft - and one of the most hated and maligned books in the history of the world.

on serious note, if you can read Italian easily you will love it, because then you can save yourself from the crappy translation. Same goes for The Divine Comedy by Dante… what a masterpiece.. Each canto in original language is like came from heavens. truly it’s called the divine comedy, certainly the greatest piece of literature ever written.
