Happiness seems to be simple to understand, but profound and lasting happiness is actually a complex business, as brilliantly illustrated by Derren Brown in his 2016 book ‘Happy: Why More or Less Everything Is Absolutely Fine’. Derren’s very readable 500-page tome forms the basis for this series of episodes on the many aspects of happiness, including its history.
After musing on his recent illness and reading some quotes about happiness, Antony reads choice passages from the book and adds his own interjections.
Part 2 will follow next month
