L'homme Qui Voulait Etre Heure

I know it sounds a bit cliché to appreciate (not to say even adore) a book that has been so successful to the point of becoming a bestseller, but all the worse, I take responsibility for my choices! Yes, I adored this book (I had already adored "The gods always travel incognito", and there, it is the same feeling of beatitude which carried me away). A simple book, easy to read, accessible to all and which nevertheless makes us think about existential questions, such as for example (and not the least): What do I really want to do with my life? And am I capable of succeeding? or Should I fit in and do what others expect of me or do what I really want?

The narrator will have to ask all his questions during his stay in Bali with his meeting with a healer, or to be exact, a spiritual master named Samtyang. The latter will teach the narrator to progress by giving him a few small tasks to help him discover who he really is and to progress in order to feel better in his life and in his head. Because yes, the narrator has a profession (he is a teacher), so he earns a good living (even if he has occasional headaches with his banker because of his overdrafts) but he has no one, however. in his life and more than anything, he is not happy. Master Samtyang will therefore help him to find out what he would need to do to change this!

A pleasant novel to read, very quickly read and that I recommend you, even if I noticed that the opinions on the subject were mixed!
