Summary

Un roman qui concentre à lui seul tout le réalisme magique de Haruki Murakami. Dans une petite cité spectrale vivent des gens privés d'ombre et de sentiments. Parmi eux, un nouveau venu a pour tâche de lire les "vieux rêves" dans des crânes de licornes, attrapant des fragments de mémoire d'une autre vie, d'une autre dimension. En parallèle, dans un Tokyo futur, ascétique et déshumanisé, un homme est entraîné par un scientifique dans une dangereuse expérience qui le fera plonger dans les sous-sols de la ville, animés de créature monstrueuses. Est-ce là que se trouve la clé de l'énigme ? La solution du mystère qui lie ces deux mondes ? La Fin des temps est le quatrième roman de Haruki Murakami, où se mêlent délicieusement, avec humour et poésie, deux mondes entre réel et merveilleux, le "Pays des merveilles sans merci" et la "Fin du monde"...

Summary

Candlelight is hygge; the smell of freshly brewed coffee is hygge; the feel of crisp, clean bed linen is hygge; dinner with friends is hygge. Hygge, pronounced 'hoo-ga', is a Danish philosophy that roughly translates to 'cosiness'. But it is so much more than that. It's a way of life that encourages us to be kinder to ourselves, to take pleasure in the modest, the mundane and the familiar. It is a celebration of the everyday, of sensual experiences rather than things. It's an entire attitude towards life that results in Denmark regularly being voted one of the happiest countries in the world. So, with two divorces behind her and her 50th birthday rapidly approaching, journalist Charlotte Abrahams ponders whether it's hygge that's been missing from her life. Is it a philosophy we can all embrace? In a society where lifestyle trends tend to centre on deprivation - be it no sugar, no gluten or no possessions - what does cherishing yourself actually mean? And will it make her happy? In Hygge, Charlotte Abrahams weaves the history of hygge and its role in Danish culture with her own attempts, as an English woman, to embrace a more hygge life. In this beautifully told audiobook, she examines the impact this has on her home, her health, her relationships and, of course, her happiness. Light a candle, pour yourself a glass of wine and get ready to enjoy your more hygge life. Written and read by Charlotte Abrahams.
