Synopsis
An Apology for Idlers and Other EssaysJustifying his rejection of an established profession, in 1877 Stevenson offered An Apology for Idlers."A happy man or woman", he reasoned, "is a better thing to find than a five-pound note. He or she is a radiating focus of goodwill" and a practical demonstration of "the great Theorem of the Liveableness of Life". So that if they cannot be happy in the "handicap race for sixpenny pieces", let them take their own "by-road".A beautiful, charming and lyrical collection of good humored essays by the beloved writer of the classics Treasure Island, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and A Child's Garden of Verse.
