Sarah Bakewell on Montaigne

<p>Michel de Montaigne is an unusual and likeable figure. His essays are quirky, honest, and strangely modern. <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/belief/2010/may/10/montaigne-philosophy">Sarah Bakewell</a>, author of a recent prize-winning book about Montaigne, How to Live, discusses Montaigne's life and work for this episode of the <a href="http://www.philosophybites.com">Philosophy Bites</a> podcast.</p>
