Some interesting excerpts but most of them are too short to do much more than whet the appetite.
I just wasn't interested, so I quit.
An anthology indeed. A variety of essays and excerpts spanning centuries on varied ideas of leisure. My favorite sections were The Monk and the Unemployed.
Interesting to find this collection but excerpts ultimately unsatisfying.
lost interest and too lazy to finish it
50 essays; only one by a woman, and that one about sex.
