Yoga

Synopsis of Yoga

In 'Yoga', Emmanuel Carrère intertwines meditation and terrorism, the search for unity and bipolar disorder. The author narrates the story of a writer who, after achieving personal and professional balance, sets out to write a book about yoga, a discipline he has practiced for 25 years. However, his life takes a turn after the Charlie Hebdo attacks in 2015, the migration crisis, and a deep personal crisis that leads him to be hospitalized and treated with electroshock. Through an honest and moving account, Carrère explores themes such as mental health, personal relationships, and the challenges of the contemporary world.
