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.

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.Sex and sixty: un avenir pour l'intimité amoureuse
