Drawing on a wide and varied range of sources - from psychology, philosophy, history, popular novels, television and films - this book will engage all those who are looking for meaning within their lives. It challenges the conventional search for happiness, while suggesting a bolder way to live with one of the central paradoxes of our time.
'Thoughtful, and at times unsettling, observations on love and work ... Ziyad Marar's book contains a great deal to enlighten and engage anyone interest in happiness, and that probably includes most of us.' - Times Literary Supplement
