Synopsis
"The time that a man may call his own," observed Charles Lamb, "that is his life." In an age of increasingly long and stressful working hours, The Importance of Being Idle is a call-to-arms for would-be loafers to turn their hands to absolutely nothing whatsoever. This compendium of guidance and wisdom from prominent loafers argues with stunning wit and impeccable logic that idling plays an important role in both the progress of civilization and in our daily well-being. Just the thing to bring harried executives to their senses or to help committed idlers while away the lazy hours., The time that a man may call his own, observed Charles Lamb, that is his life.

    Seller was very nice. Although these clogs arrived looking like the picture; they were NOT "Medium" in size. They were definately "Narrow." However, Seller was not only very good about issuing a refund, they didn't even want the shoes back and I have a neighbor whose B-DAY is coming up. The fit her perfectly!
