Review

"The operating conceit of this odyssey memoir is that the author, a professed grouch...will travel to the world's happier places to explore to what degree an individual's happiness is intertwined with a shared geography and culture."

"THE GEOGRAPHY OF BLISS is lucidly and entertainingly written."

Publisher's note

Draws on the author's experiences as a foreign correspondent and reporter to evaluate more than three dozen countries for their happiness potential, in a lighthearted survey that includes profiles of such locales as the American shores, glacial Iceland, and the Bhutan jungles. Reprint.

Annotation

Former NPR foreign correspondent and self-confessed grouch Eric Weiner (his last name is pronounced "whiner"), travels to the countries with the highest levels of happiness (Thailand, Switzerland) and the lowest (Moldova) to find some of the unexpected and elusive equations behind that mysterious substance: contentment.
