Amazing! A collection of methodical observations of select insects, from dung beetles to scorpions, by an early French entomologist. His eloquent and charming language, utter dedication, and love of the subject permeate the essays. Reading this book feels like looking over the shoulder of Fabre as he digs up dung beetle nests, watches courting scorpions walk for hours hand-in-hand, and wonders over every tiny marvel.
