Much more than a tale of sweet indulgence, Prince in a Pastry Shop touches on a fundamental question important to us all, from preschooler to pensioner: what does it mean to be happy? Is happiness to be found in the smallest, most visceral of experiences like eating a sugar-dusted donut? Can we truly experience happiness while there is suffering in the world? Is there a great cosmic balance that demands for every happy moment there also be a moment of sorrow? Can we be happy knowing that it's a fleeting condition? Can we really know and understand happiness while we're experiencing it? "Happiness is nothing but trouble," says the Prince. For Prickly Pear, happiness simply tastes like a cupcake or profiterole. With a very light touch Prince in a Pastry Shop asks one of the most profound questions of our existence: is it enough to appreciate each moment of sweetness-and at what cost-or must we be active in an unforgiving world to find contentment"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a "Originally published in Polish by Wydawinictwo Format under the title KsiązÌę w cukierni." 500 $a Originally published: 2013. 500 $a Individual pages folded in half.
