Description

Failure is often seen as the opposite of success, but what happens when we conflate failure with loss? Beverley Clack explores this complex relationship in her thought-provoking book, How to be a Failure and Still Live Well.

This philosophical exploration delves into how our understanding of loss affects our ability to cope with everyday losses that come with ageing, death, and decay. By engaging with loss and considering its implications for our lives and commitments, we can discover alternative values that prioritize relationships, spontaneity, and generosity.
