The only authorized biography of Viktor Frankl, chronicling both his life and his extraordinary relationship with his wife, Elly

Viktor Frankl’s works have been translated into nearly 60 languages and sold over 20 million copies worldwide, underscoring his enduring legacy. While the world knows Frankl as a Holocaust survivor, Haddon Klingberg, Jr.’s revealing biography, When Life Calls Out to Us, humanizes Frankl, allowing us to understand him in a deeper, more intimate, and sometimes surprising way.

Divided into three sections and crafted from over 100 hours of recorded personal interviews with the Frankls, Klingberg recounts the individual lives of Viktor and Elly, including their childhood, adolescence and family lives. Frankl, the accomplished psychiatrist and neurologist, shares his experiences and poignant reflections about his time in the concentration camps, and his belief that he was spared for a reason.

But readers also see a different side of Frankl--a remarkably vital and joyful man, delighting in witty wordplay and telling jokes, even admitting he was a fan of The Muppet Show. Frankl was never happier than when he was spending time with family and mountaineering. In spite of his brilliance and his many accolades, Frankl was a down-to-earth person who adored his wife, Elly, the backbone of their little family, and a major force in Frankl’s academic productivity.

Dynamic and fun-loving, Elly trained as a dental assistant to avoid being drawn into the German war effort and later devoted her life to Viktor and his work. For over five decades, they worked tirelessly, and traveled often, to spread the gospel of logotherapy—joined in the conviction that nothing is more crucial than finding purpose and meaning in life, a vision of hope that remains urgently relevant today.
