Description

Robert McCrum's life-changing stroke in 1995 left him with a profound awareness of his own mortality. Twenty-one years on, he's noticing a change: death has become a familiar companion for his friends. As he navigates this new reality, McCrum confronts existential questions about the meaning of life and death.

In Every Third Thought, McCrum embarks on a journey of self-discovery, seeking answers from a diverse range of individuals, including brain surgeons, psychologists, and writers. With the words of his favourite authors as companions, he explores the complexities of ageing, mortality, and the human experience.

This deeply personal and universal book offers a thought-provoking exploration of what it means to approach the end of life. It's a guide and companion for anyone who finds themselves grappling with the big questions about life, death, and the meaning of existence.
