A Book A Day - A Literary Podcast from India ·

2025/11/28

Man's Search for Meaning is a book by Viktor Frankl that combines a memoir of his experiences in Nazi concentration camps with an introduction to his psychotherapeutic theory, logotherapy.

In this episode, I share the key ideas of Frankl based on a conversation published in another book called Embracing Hope. About A Book A Day podcast: This podcast is hosted by author
