Happy at 102

By Tetsuyo Ishii

The runaway Japanese bestseller from a 102-year-old: a charming and inspirational manifesto about living a long and happy life and finding peace in difficult times.

When Tetsuyo Ishii was interviewed by her local paper in Hiroshima, her positive outlook, wholesome lifestyle, and connection to her community instantly captured the hearts of readers. After retiring from her job as a local teacher and sadly losing her husband, Granny Tetsuyo learned to live a fulfilling life in solitude, whether attending the friendship club she has held for nearly twenty-five years, or tending to her garden.

In this moving and charming book, Granny Tetsuyo shares the optimistic principles by which she lives her life, and the simple daily rituals that sustain her. Filled with personal stories, advice, traditional Japanese recipes, and photo diary entries, this is a snapshot of a life well-lived and a guide to finding joy in every day.
