VIVERE LIBERI E FELICI UN’INDAGINE ESISTENZIALE

"All who are happy have what they want, though not all who have what they want are necessarily happy' (St Augustine). This phrase highlights the drama of human existence, namely the fact that our deepest desires are often unknown to us. The book is an investigation into them in the light of experience, the resources of philosophy and the lives of the saints, given that a common feature of them, beyond the great individual differences, is an habitual joy despite, at times, tremendous trials and suffering. The search for happiness is also a reflection on freedom, since happiness and freedom go hand in hand like inseparable twins: the happier you are, the freer you are, and vice versa.
