Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Essais
La ville des villes est �tendue entre le Mont des Martyrs et le Mont Parnasse. N� sur l'un, il est dur de vivre sur l'autre; et il faut tout de m�me tourner le dos avec joie � la colline, O� le saint qui pense n'a pas d'autre promesse, que de porter un jour sa t�te entre ses mains.
