Dance Your Life. Psychological Essays on How to Reclaim Yourself

Lily Grad’s texts sound vivid and confident—in them you can feel the experience of a psychologist who meets real, unmade-up pain from all kinds of people every day. How to get out of destructive scenarios? Does a person need happiness and why is it important? What if there is not enough love in life? These pages offer empathy and humor, tenderness and depth—real life, where even in despair, hope already flickers; where you don’t have to be exceptional; and where you can only hear your own unique melody that’s unlike anything else. Sometimes life really “asks for irony, not tears,” yet it is still worthy of love. This book is like a door behind which you can see yourself differently; or you can simply catch your breath and restore your strength.
