À propos de cet audio
'She leaves her readers inspired, invigorated and sincerely grateful' TELEGRAPH
'A literary phenomenon' TLS
Why do some loves endure while others fade? Is happiness something we can learn? Why do some things feel like work and others like leisure?
Every new page of Consolations offers a thought-provoking idea about life - from friendship and family arguments to ageing and narcissism. Renowned classicist Irene Vallejo shows us how each of these ideas has its roots in ancient times, drawing on the wisdom of Aristotle and Seneca, as well as lesser known philosophy and history.
Each entry brings a surprising insight, and helps us to think differently about our daily life. These are fascinating little gems to read every day, and to savour slowly.©2026 Irene Vallejo Moreu (P)2026 Hodder & Stoughton Limited
