Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl

challenging dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

This is an absolutely phenomenal work, and I'm so glad to finally have read this. I think everyone should read this book, especially those feeling lost in life or those who have gone through very difficult and traumatic events. Man's Search for Meaning is incredibly inspiring and I truly love everything about this book, it was perfectly done. Frankl manages to address both uncomfortable topics on a personal level and a broader historical level in a poignant yet necessary way. I do not think a single word or sentence was irrelevant, and I was entranced the whole time. I will definitely be coming back to this for guidance, and I nearly underlined the whole book. 

Frankl has the unique voice of a poet, survivor, psychologist, and philosopher all rolled into one. I feel absolutely touched, and will now genuinely be readjusting my entire outlook on life. One of my favorite books I have read this year, to be sure. Everyone, please pick this up at least once!
