Description of
Other People's Thoughts: Idiosyncratically Compiled By Simon Leys for the Amusement of Idle Readers
In this wonderfully entertaining collection of quotations, Simon Leys gathers insights and bons mots from a motley group of great artists, wits and thinkers. Topics range from ambition and adventure to youth, sex, time, toads, wine, faith and friendship. Wise, witty and delightfully unpredictable, Other Peoples Thoughts is for anyone who has ever rifled through a friends bookshelves or snuck a peak over a reading strangers shoulder. In this wide-ranging miscellany, we are given free rein to explore the nooks and crannies of one mans mental library. By turns profound, whimsical and subversive, the result is a book-lovers delight.
