When I Am Playing with My Cat, how Do I Know She is Not Playing with Me?

Résumé

Saul Frampton offers a celebration of perhaps the most enjoyable and yet profound of all Renaissance writers, Michel de Montaigne, whose essays went on to have a huge impact on figures as diverse as Shakespeare, Emerson, and Orson Welles, and whose thoughts, even today, offer a guide and unprecedented insight into the simple matter of being alive.
