The Little Book of Hygge

You'll finally know how to pronounce "hygge" after listening to this audiobook--and you might find yourself wanting to invite author Meik Wiking over for some mulled wine. Hygge is the Danish concept of coziness-plus that's currently experiencing a surge of publicity outside Denmark. Narrating with a slight accent, Wiking is an able and appealing reader of his own work, which serves as both an in-depth explanation of hygge as well as a treatise on how and why its practice might impact our overall happiness and well-being. (Wiking is the CEO of the Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen.) If you're of a certain disposition, this audiobook experience will feel like a warm blanket on a dark winter night.
