Even if you haven't read Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl, you've likely encountered its ideas or even a few of its quotes.

The book, written in response to the psychiatrist who survived the Holocaust, has been a hit ever since it was first released.

And it's been especially popular in the social-media and influencer era.

Kahn's piece on the ethics of combining a Holocaust memoir with self-help culture is up at Vox.
