Author: David A. Kessler MD | Narrator: Blair Hardman
Most of us know what it feels like to fall under the spell of food - when one slice of pizza turns into half a pie, or a handful of chips leads to an empty bag.

The Confessions of Jean-Jacques Rousseau (Audiobook)
English | August 05, 2020 | ASIN: B08F676CNP | M4B@64 kbps | 29h 6m | 793 MB
Author: Jean-Jacques Rousseau | Narrator: Jonathan Keeble
Published four years after Rousseau's death, Confessions is a remarkably frank and honest self-portrait, described by Rousseau as "the history of my soul". From his idyllic youth in the Swiss mountains, to his career as a composer in Paris and his abandonment of his children, Rousseau lays bare his entire life with preternatural honesty. He relates his scandals, follies, jealousies, sexual exploits, and unrequited loves, as well as the torrential events surrounding his controversial works Discourses, Emile, and The Social Contract, which led to his persecution and wanderings in exile.
