One Hundred Rooms

The main character in this book wants a big house. He wants it to have one hundred rooms filled with belongings. He ultimately discovers that all he needs is one room, few belongings, a walk in the woods, and welcoming neighbors – those are the things that make him happy. Through the amusing tale of the one hundred room homeowner, Haya Shenhav presents an idea that's easier read than done: Who is rich? He who is happy with his lot [Mishna, Ethics of the Fathers, 4:1]
