Description: Familiarity Breeds Content by Joseph Epstein Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A collection of personal essays from Americas most revered essay writer, Joseph Epstein.Americas greatest living essayist writes about life and aging and being all too nicely out of it. In these personal pieces, he takes on topics as varied as grieving for a dead son, learning Latin late in life, and the pleasures of living with cats. Epstein gives us a "bonfire of his own vanities," his thoughts about why watching sports is so impossibly seductive, what it is like to be short, and why he misses smoking even decades as a health-obsessed non-smoker. Above all, he writes about the literary life and the endless joys that reading and writing have brought to a self-confessed "lucky man."
