Finally, Sarah Bakewell–also known as my favourite living author–visits radio programme Start the Week to discuss humanism and her new book, 'Humanly Possible':

'The writer Sarah Bakewell explores the long tradition of humanist thought in her latest book, Humanly Possible. She celebrates the writers, thinkers, artists and scientists over the last 700 years who have placed humanity at the centre, while defying the forces of religion, fanatics, mystics and tyrants.'

'Humanly Possible: Seven Hundred Years of Humanist Freethinking, Inquiry, and Hope' by Sarah Bakewell.

What is to be human?

My favourite living author will soon—28 March—publish her new book. It will be grand and lovely and all about humanism.

If you've not read her books on Michel de Montaigne and existentialism, I envy you.

Finally, the philosophy podcast 'History of Philosophy Without any Gaps' reaches Michel de Montaigne, one of my favourites.

Don't miss out on Sarah Bakewell's brilliant book about Montaigne.

I think I've already discovered what'll be the book of 2023.

Sarah Bakewell's 'Humanly Possible: Seven Hundred Years of Humanist Freethinking, Inquiry, and Hope'. It'll be published late March (2023).

Sarah is my favourite living author. Her books on Michel de Montaigne and existentialism are some of my most highly treasured books. They've made me grow as a person.
