“Scott Monty writes like someone who has read widely, led seriously, and grown skeptical of the modern world’s tendency to mistake motion for progress.
His essays are anchored in classical sources — not as a show of erudition, but because he genuinely believes the past has better answers than the present is willing to admit.”
