The Simple Life

Originally published in French in 1899, this book is a call to reject the values of modern society and embrace a simpler, more authentic way of living. Wagner argues that simplicity, humility, and generosity are the keys to a fulfilling life, and that materialism, greed, and status-seeking only lead to emptiness and unhappiness. This message resonated with many readers in the early 20th century, and the book continues to inspire those seeking a more meaningful existence.
