Breakups in Cafes Léo Noël

What do you do when you have lost everything? You either kill yourself or you go on living In the span of six months, our protagonist comes home after getting banned from Wales, gets into a lawsuit against his parents, quits his job, drops out of his Master's and goes through yet another devastating breakup in a coffee shop. He then faces a question we all asked ourselves at some point: "What the fuck do I do now ?" In this ambitious follow-up to the author's debut, Breakups in Cafes combines narrative poetry and self-help to deliver a light-hearted look at the theme of death and rebirth and how we can navigate it. The second part of the book gives us a modern and cheeky reinterpretation of the Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu. The 2500-year-old classic eastern wisdom text often called "the philosophy of the chill" And of course, all of it is seasoned with sex, drugs and the existential angst of millennials.
