About this ebook

Montaigne’s essays penetrate the intimate feelings, perceptions, attitudes, anxieties and hopes which make up the texture of daily life. With urbanity and irony, he makes his way through the fine texture of these formative traits of lived life. Tackling each issue as it arises, Montaigne probes the spectrum of human experiences, and shares his own wisdom with the human kind that will read him. The reader of this book, which is a blend of Montaigne’s observations with those of the author, should find in Montaigne, a mirror of his or her own experiences and the joy or solace of knowing that they apply precisely to their own world.
