Sometimes to find yourself, you need to get a little lost. Hector is a successful young psychiatrist. He's very good at treating patients in real need of his help. But many people he sees have no health problems: they're just deeply dissatisfied with their lives. Hector can't do much for them, and it's beginning to depress him. So when a patient tells him he looks in need of a holiday, Hector decides to set off round the world to find out what makes people everywhere happy (and sad), and whether there is such a thing as the secret of true happiness? Over a million readers worldwide have engaged with psychiatrist Francois Lelord's modern fable. Narrated with deceptive simplicity, its perceptive observations on happiness offer us the chance to reflect on the contentment we all look for in our own lives. ***The feature film of 'Hector and the Search for Happiness' is to be released in October 2014*** REVIEWS: 'A series of philosophical bonnes bouches ? their effect is unexpectedly cheering' - The Independent 'Even the most aloof, the most detached reader will be won over by this book' - Cosmopolitan 'Provides a dollop of warm, fuzzy, feel-good escapism' - Woman 'Intelligently naive' - Marie Claire ALL TITLES IN THE HECTOR SERIES 9781906040239 Hector and the Search for Happiness 9781908313676 Hector and the Search for Happiness (film tie in edition) 9781906040338 Hector and the Secrets of Love 9781906040895 Hector Finds Love
