Guardian Bookshop Notes:

A spirited and singular portrait of the Renaissance writer and philosopher, which relates the story of his life by way of the questions he posed about the nature of living and the answers he explored, and how this is still relevant to our everyday lives today.

Publisher's description:

A nobleman, public official and wine-grower, Renaissance writer Michel Eyquem de Montaigne (1533-92) wrote free-roaming explorations of his thought and experience, unlike anything written before. This book relates the story of his life by way of the questions he posed and the answers he explored.
