About the Book
The Eternal Instant - Understanding Irony is a unique investigation into the ironic twists of fate and contradictory turn of events in our daily lives. Because of our detached and polarized way of thinking about things, we are responsible for bringing about these reversals in the first place. The alternative, participation in depth with our surroundings, questions our blind faith in facts, urges us to look for the meaning in things, and teaches us to anticipate ironic reversals more quickly. Alive and illustrated with sayings, maxims and wit, this book will not fail to fascinate anyone, on the road of ideas, hoping for an understanding of the paradoxical nature of existence.
