Reseña del libro "On Giving up (en Inglés)"

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
