ONLINE: Truro Library Book Group — The Geography of Bliss by Eric Weiner
November 25, 2020 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Truro Library Book Club
The November selection is The Geography of Bliss: One Grump’s Search for the Happiest Places in the World by Eric Weiner.
Please email Maggie to receive the Zoom invite to this program.
Part travel memoir, part humor, and part twisted self-help guide, The Geography of Bliss takes the reader across the globe to investigate not what happiness is, but WHERE it is.
Are people in Switzerland happier because it is the most democratic country in the world? Do citizens of Qatar, awash in petrodollars, find joy in all that cash? Is the King of Bhutan a visionary for his initiative to calculate Gross National Happiness? Why is Asheville, North Carolina so damn happy?
In a unique mix of travel, psychology, science and humor, Eric Weiner answers those questions and many others, offering travelers of all moods some interesting new ideas for sunnier destinations and dispositions.
