Van Gogh is not a very good argument against happiness, considering that a) he was psychotic rather than temperamentally gloomy, b) who knows how many more paintings he'd have done if he hadn't SHOT HIMSELF?
Frankly, I don't think genuine happiness is either so prevalent or over-valued that one needs to write a book decrying it.
