Hector
and the Search for Happiness Synopsis:
“Pegg
plays Hector, an eccentric yet irresistible London psychiatrist in crisis: his
patients are just not getting any happier!
He’s going nowhere. Then one day,
armed with buckets of courage and an almost child-like curiosity, Hector breaks
out of his sheltered vacuum of a life into a global quest to find out if
happiness exists. More importantly, if
it exists for Hector. And so begins a
colorful, exotic, dangerous and hysterical journey.”
Hector
and the Search for Happiness Book
Synopsis Via Amazon:
Hector
is a young psychiatrist in Paris who does not understand why his patients in
this most beautiful of cities are unhappy. So he decides to take a trip around
the world–from Paris to China to Africa to the United States–and to keep a list
of observations about the people he meets, hoping to find the secret to
happiness.
Combining
the winsome appeal of The Little Prince with the inspiring philosophy of The
Alchemist, Hector’s journey around the world and into the human soul is
entertaining, empowering, and smile inducing–as winning in its optimism as it
is wise in its simplicity.
