人生の意味

I expected another dry philosophy slog and instead got something that actually treats the question of fulfilment as something ordinary people can work through, chapter by chapter. The writing never gets preachy, which is rare for this kind of book.

Got through the whole thing on a long flight and couldn’t put it down—the way it handles the “peculiar” and “faintly ridiculous” side of the question really made me laugh out loud a few times. It’s not a heavy academic read at all, more like a warm, clear-eyed conversation that honestly made me feel

I bought this thinking it might be too philosophical for me, but the way it unpacks the "ingredients of fulfilment" makes it surprisingly practical for everyday decisions. The chapters are short enough to digest before bed, and I've already lent it to two friends.
