On Wanting to Change

From the UK's foremost literary psychoanalyst, a dazzling new book on the universal urge to change our lives.We live in a world in which we are invited to change-to become our best selves through politics, or fitness, or diet, or therapy. We change all the time-growing older and older-and how we think about change changes over time too.We want to think of our lives as progress myths-as narratives of positive personal growth-at the same time as we inevitably age and suffer setbacks.Adam Phillips's sparkling book On Wanting to Change explores the stories we tell about change, and the changes we actually make-and the fact that they don't always go, or come, together.
