Omslag till Robert Louis Stevenson: Virginibus Puerisque (ePUB)

Virginibus Puerisque represents the legendary author’s first collection of personal essays. Far from being a droll affair they are playful and spirited, they are written in defiance of the hardship of everyday life and the contemptuous philistines who rage against the arts. These essays are here to calm and help, they are positive reflections on things we all worry about. In ’Childs Play’ Stevenson sooths our fears over lost childhoods, and then takes us on a sweeping orchestration of bravery in ’The English Admirals’. The essays are playful and thoughtful and absolutely perfect for a calm commute home.-
