"How to Stop Living and Start Worrying" by Simon Critchley takes on the timeless question of leading a happy and meaningful life, countering contemporary self-help approaches. Critchley challenges the obsession with self-expression and self-realization, redirecting the focus to our complex relationship with death. Embracing the classical idea that philosophy begins with acknowledging our finitude and learning how to die, Critchley explores the profound link between mortality and love. He contends that love demands a relinquishment of control, exposing our inherent limitations, or 'originary inauthenticity.' Through an examination of humor, the book encourages confronting life's inherent absurdities and underscores the need for self-reflection and acceptance.
