Hello Drunken Scribes!
This month, the group will explore the profound reflections of Viktor Frankl in Man’s Search for Meaning. This timeless work combines memoir and philosophy, recounting Frankl’s harrowing firsthand experiences in Nazi concentration camps and the development of logotherapy—a therapeutic approach centered on finding purpose in life.
