With a mixture of tenderness, irony, melancholy, and a sense of humor, this Spanish philosopher tells the story of what he has done with his life, or better yet, what life has done with him. This book includes his childhood in San Sebastian, the happiest stage of his life; the memories of his adolescence, up until the death of Franco; and his political commitments of today. In this unique work, Savater reflects upon the journey of his life, conscious that one cannot reveal it all.
