The Ruricolist: Essays and Caprices (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781794566699)

A ruricolist lives in the country. The Ruricolist is an essay series written by one, with room to cultivate big questions: When does youth end? How can we face death? What is the shape of history? How do ideas work? Is intelligence obsolete?

But in the country, levels of style always mix, and among the essays are startling caprices - fables, satires, and other forms - because we cannot always think our way out.

Originally published between 2007 and 2011, The Ruricolist is now in one volume.
