Language: Eng.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The publication of Creatures of a Day is reason to celebrate.\" -- Steven Pinker In this stunning collection of stories, renowned psychiatrist Irvin D. Yalom describes his patients' struggles -- as well as his own -- to come to terms with the two great challenges of existence: how to have a meaningful life yet reckon with its inevitable end. We meet a nurse who must stifle the pain of losing her son in order to comfort her patients' pains, a newly minted psychologist whose studies damage her treasured memories of a lost friend, and a man whose rejection of psychological inquiry forces even Yalom himself into a crisis of confidence.Creatures of a Day is a radically honest statement about the difficulties of human life, but also a celebration of some of the finest fruits -- love, family, friendship -- it can offer. Marcus Aurelius has written that \"we are all creatures of a day.\" With Yalom as our guide, we will find the means to make our own day not only bearable, but also meaningful and joyful.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Irvin D.
