<i>A visit to the dentist prompts a late-life turning point and a pilgrimage to the land of sun and sea.</i> Daniel Klein was in his seventies when his dentist told him he'd need tooth implants if he wanted to avoid wearing old-fashioned and old-looking denture plates. But instead of going under the drill, he headed to Greece to see if one of his favorite philosophers, the sage Epicurus, could teach him something about the pleasures available only later in life. A travel book, a witty and accessible meditation, and an optimistic guide to living well, <i>Travels with Epicurus</i> is a delightful jaunt to the Aegean and through the terrain of old age that only Klein could lead.
