'We Moderns: Enigmas and Guesses' is a book of essays by Edwin Muir that explores the mysteries of the world and the ethical problems of life. Muir argues that life should be seen as an exciting adventure and that we should reject old fears and outdated beliefs. He believes that life is a sacred experience that should be embraced fully. Muir's essays are influenced by Nietzsche, who showed that past solutions have failed and that mob mentality is not the answer.
