We all have two lives – the life we live and the life of our fantasies. But it is the life unlived – the person we have failed to be – that can trouble and even haunt us. In Missing Out acclaimed psychoanalyst Adam Phillips delves into the gap between who we are and who we are not, to discover whether not getting what we want may be the unlikely key to the fully lived life. ‘Peppered with the kind of insights that make you scrawl ‘yes!’ in the margins on almost every page . . . Glimpses of the real, true, messy and never knowable human heart.’ Independent
