About this listen
“A faithful translation is rare; a translation which preserves intact the original text is very rare; a perfect translation of Montaigne appears impossible. Yet Donald Frame has realized this feat. One does not seem to be reading a translation, so smooth and easy is the style; at each moment, one seems to be listening to Montaigne himself - the freshness of his ideas, the unexpected choice of words. Frame has kept everything.” (Andre Maurois, The New York Times Book Review)

Long but worth it
So many relevant insights to life, and so interesting to hear about the ways of living in the 1500s.

Too many “notes” for an audio book
The content is great, but the side notes occurred with such frequency- many of them lengthy - it became difficult to differentiate from Montaigne’s writing.
