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.

A very good read on self-transcendance

I found this book in the most difficult moment of my life, and it offered me an invaluable lesson on self-transcendence and the attitude to take when faced with unbearable suffering in what has been for me the momentum of my existence.

Very very basic

And a bit outdated.
