I couldn't even finish reading it. And I'm really tired of the romanticizing of misery via the citation of people who were miserable and yet managed to accomplish things. How much more might they have accomplished if they'd been happier? Nobody ever asks that. Of course people try to make the best of whatever circumstances they are in, but that doesn't make the circumstances either necessary or sacred. Feh.
