Philosophy has always been more than an ivory tower discipline. Renowned philosophers from Plato to Nietzsche and many others produced fiction with thought-provoking philosophical content. Many of philosophy’s story-tellers preferred long walks rather than the confines of the ivory tower. I’m a workaday philosopher of no renown who has enjoyed both for a long time, deep thoughts in the Tower, long walks to process them.
