Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now

With a pile of DVD classics, Morrissey and the Japanese concept of ikigai to hand, Tom Shakespeare reflects on the neglected value of humour.

Tom Shakespeare looks to some DVD classics and the Japanese concept of ikigai to provide some light relief from the doom and gloom of January.

'The definitive guide to ikigai,' Tom writes, 'says ikigai is what allows you to look forward to the future, even if you're miserable right now.'

And yes, Morrissey makes an appearance too!
