Montaigne in barn boots : an amateur ambles through philosophy
Written in a spirit of exploration rather than declaration, Montaigne in Barn Boots is a down-to-earth (how do you pronounce that last name?) look into the ideas of a philosopher \"ensconced in a castle tower overlooking his vineyard,\" channeled by a Midwestern American writing \"in a room above the garage overlooking a disused pig pen.\" Whether grabbing an electrified fence, fighting fires, failing to fix a truck, or feeding chickens, Perry draws on each experience to explore subjects as diverse as faith, race, sex, aromatherapy, and Prince. But he also champions academics and aesthetics, in a book that ultimately emerges as a sincere, unflinching look at the vital need to be a better person and citizen.
