This Week’s PrePublication Book:
Hector
and
the
Search
for
Happiness
by Francois Lelord
Featured the week of July 26, 2010
Following
on
the
success
of
The
Elegance
of
the
Hedgehog,
and
already
a
worldwide
sensation,
Hector
and
the
Search
for
Happiness
finally
comes
to
America,
where
readers
will
delight
in
its
uplifting
humor.
As
Hector
travels
from
Paris
to
China
to
the
United
States,
he
keeps
a
list
of
observations
about
the
people
he
meets,
hoping
to
find
the
secret
to
happiness.
Combining
the
winsome
appeal
of
The
Little
Prince
with
the
inspiring
philosophy
of
The
Alchemist,
Hector's
journey
around
the
world
and
into
the
human
soul
is
entertaining,
empowering,
and
smile
inducing-as
winning
in
its
optimism
as
it
is
powerful
in
its
insight
and
reassuring
in
its
simplicity.
