What, do you need me to find a topic? Come on, you know better than that

Well, I wouldn't complain if I were you. I haven't looked at the price of this book in France (supposing it's out in e-book form) but I can tell you that here, Michel Onfray's books are only about 3 times as expensive in e-form as the paperback version. But of course, French pixels are more expensive

Thank you, I'll try to take a look.

I'm still reading Seneca by the way
