Résumé
Every time Shorter opened a newspaper or turned on the radio, he found another reason to be pessimistic. He undertook a year-long quest to seek out the world's most positive thinkers, including Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Jung Chang, Matthieu Ricard, California's… renowned Surfing Rabbi, and Bill Clinton. But optimism doesn't come easy, and Shorter's resolve is tested by a flagging career, a troubled love affair, and his ever-pessimistic dad. Strong language. 2009.
