| book description |

From the bestselling author of Jews Donâ€™t Count â€˜ A hugely heartfelt, funny, kind, fascinating, human and clever book â€™ ALAIN DE BOTTON â€˜ Magnificent. Breathtaking. And shockingly rare â€¦ another one-sitting wonderâ€™ STEPHEN FRY David Baddiel would love there to be a God. He has spent a lot of time fantasising about how much better life would be if there actually was such a thing as a Superhero Dad who chased off Death. Unfortunately for him, there isnâ€™t. Or at least, that is Baddielâ€™s view in this book, which argues that it is indeed the very intensity of his, and everyone elseâ€™s, desire for God to exist that proves His non-existence. Anything so deeply wished-for we will, considers Baddiel, make real. The admission of his own divine yearnings makes for a book that is more vulnerable â€“ and more understanding of the value and power of religion â€“ than most atheist polemics. A philosophical essay that utilises Baddielâ€™s trademarks of comedy, storytelling and personal asides, The God Desire offers a highly readable new perspective on the most ancient of debates.
