Part travelogue, part personal-discovery memoir and all sustained delight, this wise, witty ramble reads like Paul Theroux channeling David Sedaris on a particularly good day..... Fresh and beguiling., With one single book, Eric Weiner has flushed Bill Bryson down a proverbial toilet, and I say that lovingly. By turns hilarious and profound, this is the kind of book that could change your life. The relationship between place and contentment is an ineffable one, and Weiner cuts through the fog with a big, powerful light. The Geography of Bliss is no smiley-face emoticon, it's a Winslow Homer., Think Don Quixote with a dark sense of humor and a taste for hashish and you begin to grasp Eric Weiner, the modern knight-errant of this mad, sad, wise, and witty quest across four continents. I won't spoil the fun by telling if his mission succeeds, except to say that happiness is reading a book as entertaining as this., With one single book, Eric Weiner has flushed Bill Bryson down a proverbial toilet, and I say that lovingly.

Synopsis
Now a new series on Peacock with Rainn Wilson, THE GEOGRAPHY OF BLISS is part travel memoir, part humor, and part twisted self-help guide that takes the viewer 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., 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.

- n***j (17)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoSam accepted an offer for a lower price than he was asking for a Disney lunchbox. It was a fair price. He packaged it with more padding than I would have expected and sent it off immediately. It came in the condition that he described. He even included a personal note for me. It was a pleasure buying from him.Vintage 1960's Walt Disney School Bus Metal Lunchbox (No Thermos) (N° 235842161757)
- k***t (16)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoGreat seller, super fast shipping, book in great condition, wrapped really well and arrived with no issues. Seller included a sweet note that made us smile! The photos of the book matched the reality. The value was great, seller accepted my offer. Thank you! This movie tie-in edition is a good collector’s item for fans of the Keira Knightley movie.
- 6***n (2)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoThe quality of this used book was even better than I expected! It was described as "like new", however, I'm not sure it had ever even been read before. It arrived in some of the best packing I have ever seen for a book....or anything else for that matter. A thoughtful, kind handwritten note was included that made it even more special. It is evident that this seller cares about customer service and takes great care in delivering their product. I would highly recommend purchasing from them!
