Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book delves into Michel de Montaigne's transformative journey after he retired from his role as a magistrate in 1570, prompted by personal losses. Instead of succumbing to despair, he began writing the Essays, a collection of reflections that explore both the profound and trivial aspects of life. Through his writings, Montaigne evolves from contemplating death to embracing life's simple pleasures, finding solace in everyday experiences like human connection, sensory delights, and the companionship of his cat.
