Novelist Charlotte Mendelson asks why writers seem reluctant to engage with happiness and why so much literature is full of unhappy people. She’s joined by psychologist and broadcaster Claudia Hammond, presenter of Radio 4’s All In The Mind programme and author of Emotional Rollercoaster: A Journey Through the Science of Feelings.

Edited version broadcast on Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio 3 during tonight's interval.
