«La nef des fous», volume 3 of «Des nouvelles du Bas-Empire», is a satirical essay by Michel Onfray (Bouquins, paperback, 255 pages, in French).
Michel Onfray records throughout 2020 a sort of diary of contemporary France: politics, the media, cultural controversies, political correctness and social upheavals. With irony rooted in Voltaire, he depicts the decline of a civilisation comparable to the late Roman Empire, with examples and anecdotes from public life.
