On Wanting to Change
From the UKs foremost literary psychoanalyst, a dazzling new book on the universal urge to change our lives.
We live in a world in which we are invited to changeto become our best selves through politics, or fitness, or diet, or therapy. We change all the timegrowing older and olderand how we think about change changes over time too.
We want to think of our lives as progress mythsas narratives of positive personal growthat the same time as we inevitably age and suffer setbacks.
Adam Phillipss sparkling book On Wanting to Change explores the stories we tell about change, and the changes we actually makeand the fact that they dont always go, or come, together.
