I'm nearing the end of the Little Black Classics collection and The Rule of Benedict was next up.

Ever wondered what rules you would have to follow as a medieval monk?
- Me neither.

Part of this book is which prayers need to be said by whom at what hour on what day during which period of the year. This would maybe be interesting for people very much into this topic, but I got very little from it. Some more general parts on how one should live where slightly more captivating but contained also quite some repetition.

This was not really for me.
