«Petite philosophie de la chaussette» is the sociological essay by Jean-Claude Kaufmann, published by Buchet Chastel in paperback (218 pages, in French).
Starting from the sock, Jean-Claude Kaufmann reflects with humour on life as a couple and domestic quirks: picking them up, pairing them, deciding when to throw them away. The author turns the insignificant into a sociological magnifying glass that reveals habits, tastes, everyday tensions and the way we inhabit the world.
Published on 6 October 2022. The author has also devoted essays to other everyday objects such as the handbag, saucepans and the marital bed.
A work for readers interested in the sociology of everyday life and in essays that start from seemingly banal objects.
