Ikigai

Héctor García

“Ikigai” is a Japanese word which can be loosely translated into English as “a reason for living” but which also entails “the happiness of always being busy.” Spanish writers Héctor García and Francesc Miralles explain both senses in this brief and absorbing book, which nevertheless has a lofty goal – to discover the meaning of life itself. García and Miralles go to Okinawa for inspiration.
