Publisher's Synopsis

FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE THINGS YOU CAN SEE ONLY WHEN YOU SLOW DOWN - OVER 3 MILLION COPIES SOLD

'Reading this is like receiving a warm hug'
Vex King, author of Good Vibes, Good Life

'A warm and reassuring path through the most challenging moments of our lives' Lori Gottlieb, author of Maybe You Should Talk To Someone

***

Modern life doesn't always go our way. Loss, rejection, uncertainty and loneliness are unavoidable parts of the human experience -- but there is solace to be found.

In When Things Don't Go Your Way, Zen Buddhist teacher Haemin Sunim provides simple but powerful wisdom for navigating life's challenges. Through his trademark combination of beautiful illustrations, insightful stories, and contemplative aphorisms, Sunim helps us reframe our mindsets and develop emotional agility.

When Things Don't Go Your Way is a soothing balm that helps us all find courage and comfort when we need it most.


Haemin Sunim, Top 5 bestselling non-Christian religious author of all-time (UK), Nielsen, January 2025

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
