The Well of Being : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Well of Being ''The Well of Being: a children's book for adults'' is artist Jean-Pierre Weill's first book and a pioneering endeavor to brings a child's perspective to serious adult literature. 〔The Baltimore Jewish Times, accessed Jan. 23 2014, URL - http://jewishtimes.com/review-well-done/#.UuE4F2T8Ib0〕 The book combines the gravity of adult issues such as the pursuit of well-being and self-actualization with the levity of a picture book and the disinhibition of a child. == Origins ==
According to the author, "''The Well of Being'' is a pictorial narrative and my first book. The book took a few turns before I learned where it was headed. I thought I was writing a pictorial adventure about T. S. Eliot’s famous Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock. I had drawn illustrations of Mr. Prufrock muttering tedious arguments to himself as he visited a museum or walked along muddled half deserted streets. I cataloged his (and my) dark moods - his confusion and longings and ennui, and his states of victimhood. I then decided to expand the repertoire of watercolors to include my positive states of mind, my moments of contentment and joy. Traces of Eliot’s poem all but disappeared as I discovered the book’s true purpose: to guide modernist Everyman - and along with him, myself - to the wellbeing he longs for, dimly remembers yet no longer believes in."〔Neshoma Network, accessed Jan. 23 2014, URL - http://www.neshomanetwork.com/weofbebyjewe.html〕
