THE LIFE-CHANGING MODERN CLASSIC
OVER 19 MILLION COPIES SOLD

Discover the moving true story of psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl's time as a prisoner in Auschwitz and the lessons we can learn from his experience about how to deal with life's toughest challenges.

'Every human being should read this book' Simon Sinek, author of Start With Why

'Viktor Frankl gives us the gift of looking at everything in life as an opportunity' Edith Eger, bestselling author of The Choice

----

Man's Search for Meaning has transformed the lives of millions of readers around the world. Drawing on Frankl's experiences as a prisoner in Nazi concentration camps during the Second World War, this modern classic asks one of life's most fundamental questions: how do we find meaning when faced with suffering we cannot change?

During his time in the camps, he noticed that those who comforted others and gave away their last piece of bread often survived the longest. He saw that the kind of person a prisoner became depended, not just the influence of the camp, but on an inner decision. Those who let go of their moral and spiritual selves eventually fell victim to the camp's degrading effects; those who resisted were able to turn their suffering into a kind of inner triumph.

Frankl came to understand that even in the darkest circumstances, we retain the freedom to choose how we respond - and that it is in those dark times that we can find meaning in how we live. More than 80 years later, his message of hope, purpose and resilience is as powerful as ever.

A book to return to throughout a lifetime, Man's Search for Meaning is a powerful and inspiring guide, offering a way to transcend suffering and find meaning in the art of living.

THE LIFE-CHANGING CLASSIC: Man's Search For Meaning introduces you to Viktor Frankl's extraordinary true story of survival and his belief that we can find meaning even in life's darkest moments.
