About this Event
The Terrible Paradox of Self-Awareness
From the author of The Art of Living a Meaningless Existence, this deeply moving and accessible collection invites readers to explore The Paradox of Self-Awareness—where pain and beauty coexist. In a time of overwhelming introspection and existential uncertainty, Robert Pantano’s latest book guides readers toward a more open, honest, and forgiving relationship with themselves and the world, offering clarity without false certainty. Through a journey into the depths of self-awareness—exploring meaning, identity, anxiety, regret, and mortality—it unsettles while reassuring, creating space for profound reflection. In the end, readers emerge with a deeper sense of awareness and the ability to find peace amid life’s contradictions and worries.

Pursuit of Wonder Youtube Channel
Fostering reflection through powerful ideas and stories. Wonder is the feeling of curiosity and appreciation inspired by something beautiful, inexplicable, or unfamiliar. At Pursuit of Wonder, we create work with the aim of producing that feeling.
Through video essays, short stories, guided experiences, books, and more, we explore a wide range of topics related to philosophy, psychology, science, literature, well-being, and more. We believe in facing the challenges and complexities of life head-on, and in doing so, we strive to inspire a reconnection with child-like wonder and a comfort with the uncertainty and absurdity of existence.
