ce sont là les multiples stratégies que nous propose en vain la culture contemporaine pour nous affranchir de la souffrance inhérente à l'existence. Or, tenter de fuir les émotions qui nous perturbent ne fait qu'accroître leur emprise. La souffrance nous rattrape toujours. Il existe une alternative à ce chemin et c'est le propos de Mark Epstein de nous y introduire. Il le fait avec d'autant plus de force qu'il combine les avancées les plus récentes de la psychanalyse en matière de traumatisme avec les enseignements ancestraux du bouddhisme. Car La vie est souffrance - la vie est dukkha , est le premier enseignement du Bouddha. " -- 4e de couv. Titre uniforme: The Trauma of Everyday Life.Sept jours sur le fleuve

ville natale du Massachusetts. Pour gagner sa vie, il choisit le métier de géomètre, mais l'essentiel est ailleurs : dans la nature et dans la poésie. Son oncle l'a initié très jeune aux promenades dans la campagne et les bois qui entourent la ville. Avec son frère John, il décide à la fin de l'été 1840 de fabriquer un canoë et de faire un périple de sept jours sur la rivière Concord et le fleuve Merrimack. Lorsqu'il perd son frère en 1842, il entreprend d'exorciser sa douleur et son chagrin par l'écriture. En racontant leur expédition tranquille, il livre ses réflexions sur la littérature et la philosophie, sur les Indiens et l'histoire puritaine de la Nouvelle-Angleterre, sur les grands textes sacrés. Voyage intérieur autant qu'excursion fluviale, ce tout premier récit, inédit jusqu'ici en français, porte en germe ce qui fera la particularité de son livre le plus fameux, Walden. Grâce à lui, l'écrivain Thoreau a trouvé sa voix. 2012.Tamarind & saffron: favourite recipes from the Middle East
