Montaigne's "Essais" (Essay) are one of the greatest and most important books of the French literature. They were written at the end of the 16th century. This release present a selection of Montaigne's "chef d'Å“uvre" made for a contemporary man or woman's preoccupations. The selection has been adapted for an oral transmission. Only a great actor could pretend to take up this challenge, and this is the brilliant Michel Piccoli who did it in this 4-album box. "A universal voice: [...] This so modern, surprisingly contemporary voice sings of tolerance, cries out for freedom, murmurs the fragility of" the human condition ". Music in a language that the actor Michel Piccoli gives us to hear, taking as much pleasure in putting it in the mouth as we experience listening to it. [...]" S.V. - PHILOSOPHY MAGAZINE
