We are all going to die, so how do we live?
A traumatised journalist is given a dream assignment - track down the mayor of a remote and mysterious town whose citizens are reported to be the happiest people on earth.
Journeying into a harsh and inhospitable landscape, she overcomes many obstacles before arriving in Silver Springs, the place whose citizens live according to the ancient philosophy of Stoicism and where she has been granted three days to interview the mayor.
The journalist wants to know how to live a good life and be a good person when she returns to the chaos outside the valley. The mayor wants to protect his dominion from being tainted by the modern world.
In her bestseller, Reasons Not to Worry, Brigid Delaney explores the foundations of Stoicism and how you can apply them to your life. Now, in The Seeker and The Sage, she asks: how can the wisdom of this ancient philosophy apply to communities, and how can we create our own utopias in an increasingly troubled world?©2025 Brigid Delaney (P)2025 W.
