The Road to Character

About this book-as-podcast

David Brooks argues that modern culture prizes self-promotion over deep inner virtue, leaving people shallower. He profiles historical figures who built strong character through struggle, humility, and self-discipline. Drawing on lives like Augustine's, he shows that true character grows from facing one's own weaknesses honestly.
