Sasa Hanten – A Talent for Happiness
What remains when success alone does not bring happiness?
Charlotte Maybach: a sought-after notary. Eby Tusch: heir to a fairground business. Both in their early 30s, successful – and yet not happy. Whilst Charlotte feels as though she’s at a dead end, Eby must come to terms not only with the loss of his father, but also with that of his great love. In her novel *Talent for Happiness* (Penguin 2026), Sasa Hanten tells the story, with wit and analytical acuity, of people whose lives appear successful on the surface but are in limbo on the inside. It is not about missed opportunities, but about unanswered questions: how do you want to live once you have discovered who you really are?
