Goodbye, Sadness: 12 Happiness Lessons from French Literature
14.99 €
Why are we so attracted to the "French" way of life? How can we learn the mythical joie de vivre - the purely French ability to enjoy the moment? Journalist, writer and comedian Viv Groskop has been asking herself these questions since childhood. Every summer she went to France, diligently studied the language and dreamed of absorbing at least a little "Frenchness", becoming a little closer to Françoise Sagan - freer and bolder. Viv gradually discovered other authors who managed to capture the essence of French culture and mentality. Like the previous book Groskop "Self-development by Tolstoy", "Goodbye, sadness!" helps to rethink the classics, to find in it something new and relevant. And behind the funny and witty facade lie lessons in nostalgia from Proust, altruism from Hugo, psychology from Stendhal, and even a lesson in the love of mustaches from Maupassant.
