Shares the author's insights on various aspects of life.,
By A Customer
This review is from: From A College Window (BCL1-PR English Literature) (Library Binding)
This is a collection of eighteen essays, originally published in 1907, in which the author, living what he describes as a simple, gentle, and celibate life as a Fellow of Magdalene College, Cambridge, shares what he thinks and feels about life, discussing aging, books, art, education, ambition, spirtiualism, and other topics. These essays are fairly easy to read considering the period in which they were written, and offer interesting insight into a way of life that no longer exists in the modern world from the perspective of a man who describes life as a romance, full of interesting things and people.
