«Staring at the Sun» is the psychology essay by Irvin D. Yalom, published by Piatkus Books in paperback (320 pages, in English).
Psychotherapist Irvin D. Yalom analyzes how awareness of one's own mortality influences the unconscious and conditions everyday life. With clinical cases and personal reflections —including his fear of death at seventy—, he argues that this fear lies behind many anxieties and depressions, and offers keys to confronting it.
