Never before published, this collection explores finding fulfilment and purpose from the multi-million-copy bestselling author Viktor Frankl.

Viktor Frankl gives us the gift of looking at everything in life as an opportunity - Edith Eger, bestselling author of The Choice

An inspirational new collection on turning tragedy into triumph by Holocaust survivor and multi-million copy bestselling author of Man's Search for Meaning.

During his lifetime, world-renowned psychiatrist and Auschwitz survivor Viktor Frankl maintained an unshakably optimistic outlook on life. He believed that regardless of circumstance, we can all find meaning and fulfilment in our lives, even in the face of great adversity.

But how much influence do we have on shaping our own lives? How do we seize opportunities and create a meaningful life? And in doing so, can we still respect the dignity of others and tolerate all views?

Published in English for the first time, Embracing Hope demonstrates that by exercising our freedoms, we have a duty and responsibility to ourselves, to others, and to the world around us. This collection of timeless lessons offers hope and consolation, admonition and warning, and reveals how to turn tragedy into triumph and lead a fulfilled, purposeful life.
