Description




Category: Adults, Anthology, Literature, Misc. Non-fiction
Language: English
Keywords: Essay Collection

Written by Michel de Montaigne, Jonathan Swift, Thomas Carlyle, Joseph Addison, Samuel Johnson
Read by Neville Jason
Format: MP3
Bitrate: 48 Kbps
Unabridged

Here, in this unusual collection, are some of the greatest essays in Western literature. Witty, informative and imaginative, the topics vary from starvation in Ireland, fine China, the extension of railways in the Lake District, and the tombs in Westminster Abbey. A little like after-dinner monologues, they are passing thoughts expressed as journalism. Neville Jason reads with urbane clarity.
