Fallen Leaves

This is the last and most personal work of Pulitzer Prize-winning author Will Durant, discovered thirty-two years after his death. The culmination of his sixty-plus years spent researching the philosophies, religions, arts, sciences, and civilizations from across the world, Fallen Leaves is the distilled wisdom of one of the world’s greatest minds, a man with a renowned talent for rendering the insights of the past accessible. Over the course of his career, he received numerous letters from “curious readers who have challenged me to speak my mind on the timeless questions of human life and fate. ” With Fallen Leaves, his final book, he finally accepted their challenge.
