Part memoir, part manifesto, and including chapters on dating, work, sport, babies, families, anger and friendship, it is based on the simple premise that understanding why we fail ultimately makes us stronger. It's an audiobook about learning from our mistakes and about not being afraid. Uplifting, inspiring and rich in stories from Elizabeth’s own life, How to Fail reveals that failure is not what defines us; rather it is how we respond to it that shapes us as individuals.

Welcome to Failosophy for Teens, a warm, practical and empowering guide to those moments when life doesn’t go to plan.

We’re all in it together!

Avec beaucoup d'humour et une courageuse sincérité, Elizabeth Day s'inspire de ses propres déboires personnels, mais aussi de son célèbre podcast "How To Fail" qui a vu défiler des célébrités telles que Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Alastair Campbell et David Nicholls, pour nous livrer un puissant manifeste aux accents féministes et s'élever contre les diktats de la perfection. À l'heure des réseaux sociaux, difficile d'échapper à ce flux constant de photos de stars en bikini, de bébés joufflus et de plages paradisiaques.

Lutte des classes, ambition politique, désirs refoulés et violence sourde... Une œuvre originale et parfaitement construite qui allie roman noir à la tension implacable et comédie sociale mordante, quelque part entre le "Monsieur Ripley" de Patricia Highsmith et "Le Dîner" de Herman Koch, le tout porté par un humour grinçant tout britannique. Ben Fitzmaurice est devenu le meilleur ami de Martin Gilmour le jour où, dans la cour de leur très chic école, Ben, héritier d'une prestigieuse dynastie, a pris la défense de Martin, petit boursier.

Martin Gilmour ist ein Einzelgänger. Aufgewachsen in trostlosen Verhältnissen, seinen Vater hat er nie kennengelernt. Seine Mutter hasst er bis zum heutigen Tag und meidet den Kontakt mit ihr, wo es nur geht. Es gibt nur einen Menschen, der ihm wirklich etwas bedeutet: Ben. "Mein bester Freund Ben", sagt Martin. Wenn er es sich auch nicht eingesteht, so dreht sich in seinem Leben doch alles darum, Ben zu gefallen und ähnlich zu sein.
