Old and young, single and married, women and men, we are all united by the feeling of not having achieved happiness yet. Or worse: the sensation that we are destined to fail. But what do happiness and unhappiness mean in our daily life? Why do we feel alone as a couple and in the family too, even if we have a satisfying job and good health? Why are we always stubbornly convinced that our discontent depends on others? Luciano Grigoletto, with his ironic and fluent prose, answers these and many other questions inspired by different sources of our culture: from the wisdom of fairy tales to the dialogues of everyday life, from psychology to philosophy. The result is a journey into emotions, desires, fears, pre-established roles in order to find, in small steps, our own personal path of happiness.

Luciano Grigoletto (Petropolis, Brazil) was raised in Italy. He has graduated first in literature, then in philosophy, and finally in psychology. He has worked as a psychotherapist and collaborated with Dr. Robert Neuburger at the Centre d’Etude de la Famille in Paris. His main focus is couple therapy. With Edizioni San Paolo he has published the Small Survival Handbook for Couples (2018).
