Krátký popis
'A wise, generous book' Washington PostFrom acclaimed psychoanalyst
Adam Phillips, a meditation on what we must give up to feel more
alive. To give up or not to give up?The question can feel
inescapable but the answer is never simple. Giving up our supposed
vices is one thing; giving up on life itself is quite another. One
form of self-sacrifice feels positive, something to admire and
aspire to, while the other is profoundly unsettling, if not
actively undesirable. There are always, it turns out, both good and
bad sacrifices, but it is not always clear beforehand which is
which. We give something up because we believe we can no longer go
on as we are. In this sense, giving up is a critical moment - an
attempt to make a different future. In On Giving Up, acclaimed
psychoanalyst Adam Phillips illuminates both the gaps and the
connections between the many ways of giving up, and helps us to
address the central question: what must we give up in order to feel
more alive?'One of the finest prose stylists in the language, an
Emerson of our time' John Banville'The best living essayist writing
in English' John Gray
