Hector & the Search for Happiness (Film Edition) cover

Can we learn how to be happy? 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.

A series of philosophical bonnes bouches … their effect is unexpectedly cheering’ 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 naïve’ Marie Claire ‘A fast-paced, enchanting story. Lelord himself is a psychiatrist, and his interest in the human mind is infectious’ – Book Page "A feel-good gem . . . Francois Lelord has created a 21st-century hero." Good Housekeeping
