Is happiness possible? The author is a lucid and radical pessimist. In this forceful and provocative essay, he addresses the reality of human beings and the myths we create to support it. / ¿Es posible la felicidad? El autor es un pesimista lúcido y radical. En este ensayo contundente y provocador, aborda la realidad de los seres humanos y los mitos que creamos para soportarla. Ahonda en la construcción de un alma laica que, como la religiosa, busca la trascendencia y lo eterno, en este caso por la vía de crear una obra maestra, engendrar un hijo o edificar utopías. En un futuro transhumano o poshumano que ya no queda muy lejos, con avances imparables en campos como la robótica, la genética y la farmacología, frente al Sísifo consciente y en realidad infeliz de Camus, el autor opta por el mundo de Matrix, porque, insiste, «yo, como Cioran, querría no haber nacido. Pero, ya que lo hice, querría vivir felizmente en Matrix o en el mundo de Huxley. No son distopías, o pueden no serlo». Y es que «la ilusión, el fingimiento, la irrealidad y la mentira son curativos si traen la felicidad».
