The Idlers is a collection of essays written by Frederick Roberts and Henry Morley, originally published in 1906. The book is a celebration of idleness, leisure, and the joys of doing nothing. The essays explore the pleasures of walking, reading, and daydreaming, and argue that idleness is essential to creativity and happiness. The authors also offer practical advice on how to cultivate idleness in a world that values productivity and efficiency above all else. The Idlers is a charming and witty book that invites readers to slow down, relax, and savor the simple pleasures of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
