A modest recommendation

Sitting by my fire now, quietly polluting the night air via my chimney, and so I come to this.

 

A recommendation.

 

Travels with Epicurus by Daniel Klein.  (Sub titled, A journey to a Greek island in search of an authentic old age.)

 

Funny, smart, direct, thoughtful.

 

Above all, honest.

 

He also wrote, Plato and  Platypus walk into a bar.

 

This tries a bit too hard while the Travels book doesn’t.  Funny, too, but doesn’t resonate with the words one might choose when time seems . . . to be running out.

 

Just my thoughts,

Michael
