Synopsis

Excerpt from My Uncle Benjamin: A Humorous, Satirical, and Philosophical Novel

I really do not know why man so clings to life. What does he find that is so agreeable in this insipid succession of nights and days, of winter and spring? Always the same sky, the same sun; always the same green pastures and the same yellow fields; always the same speeches of the crown, the same knaves and the same dupes. If this is the best that God could do, he is a sorry workman, and the sceneshifter at the Grand Opera is cleverer than he.
