About this listen
Bloomsbury presents Celebrating Life: Finding Happiness in Unexpected Places by Jonathan Sacks, read by Daniel Epstein.
Following the painful loss of his father, former Chief Rabbi Sacks began to learn how to celebrate life in a new way.
Based, in part, on Rabbi Sacks’s collection of columns in the UK's Times newspaper, Celebrating Life is a series of reflections on subjects such as morality, friendship, listening to others and giving thanks. It also talks about topics such as being a parent, finding and losing one’s faith and most of all, finding happiness. In Celebrating Life, Rabbi Sacks discovers where happiness lives, often in unexpected places, through family, community, friendship and responsibilities. He also finds it through a renewed relationship with God who spoke to his deepest needs.
But this redesigned and reissued edition has something for everyone, for people of all faiths and none. It shows us how to be human and, in becoming so, how we can touch the divine.
richness that we might not have experienced reading it in the mulling quietness of our own heads. This is a beautiful reading of perhaps the most beautiful book by an oh-so-missed dear, beautiful and wise man. Deeply moving, and utterly convincing.
It brought tears to my eyes!
