About the Book

Written in Irvin Yalom's inimitable storytelling style, Staring at the Sun is a profoundly encouraging approach to the universal issue of mortality. In this magisterial opus, capping a lifetime of work and personal experience, Dr. Yalom helps us recognize that the fear of death is at the heart of much of our anxiety. Such recognition is often catalyzed by an "awakening experience"--a dream, or loss (the death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job or home), illness, trauma, or aging. Once we confront our own mortality, Dr. Yalom writes, we are inspired to rearrange our priorities, communicate more deeply with those we love, appreciate more keenly the beauty of life, and increase our willingness to take the risks necessary for personal fulfillment.

About the Author :
Irvin D. Yalom is a highly regarded psychiatrist and the author of numerous books including the New York Times bestselling Love's Executioner and the internationally bestselling novel When Nietzsche Wept. Gregory Gorton has narrated more than five hundred audiobooks. His television credits include Homicide: Life on the Streets and Unsolved Mysteries. Greg has been performing, writing, and teaching with Washington, DC's, premiere musical comedy improvisation troupe, Now This! and Now This, Kids! for more than fifteen years.

Review :
"One of America's finest therapists guides us through one of life's most challenging tasks in this profoundly helpful book. It will benefit anyone who reads it." -- "Harold S. Kushner, New York Times bestselling author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People" "The idea that the anxiety of facing death can prompt an awakening to life strikes a powerful chord." -- "Bookseller" "Unlike many psychotherapists, Yalom writes like a dream." -- "Oxford Times" "While the existential realities of death, isolation, and meaninglessness may seem at first bleak and full of despair, Dr. Yalom's existential approach helps his readers frame these realities in positive and meaningful ways that foster personal growth and intensify our connections to others and to the world around us." -- "Harold Ramis, actor, writer, director, Ghostbusters, Groundhog Day, and Analyze This" "Yalom is the Scherherazade of the couch, his work a marvelous exercise in storytelling." -- "New York Times"
