Staring at the Sun: Overcoming the Terror of Death

The author speaks about a subject that is painful and truly sharp—one that is rarely discussed out loud. Fear of death is, in one form or another, familiar to everyone; most often, however, we try to push these thoughts aside, not to remember the finality of life and not to face it head-on.

This book offers an effective way to cope with exhausting anxieties. It helps you recognize and accept the inevitable conditions of human existence and learn how to live life more fully, valuing every moment. Despite the seriousness of the conversation, the text is listened to in one sitting—thanks to the storyteller’s talent and Dr. Yalom’s professional experience. As a bonus, there is a piercing yet simultaneously healing story, "I’ll Call the Police!".
