A genial layabout reconsiders life’s small tyrannies—love and marriage, babies and bachelors, house-hunting, colds, cats and dogs, the lure of travel, the curse of neighbors. With mock gravity and sudden tenderness, these conversational essays turn trifles into comic philosophy, poking fun at pride and prudence while admitting that idleness can still teach a heart to be kind.
