I''m writing it all down as much to remind myself as for anyone else \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e- but now you''re here, I''d love you to stick around . . .\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMark Watson is generally accepted to be alive. And yet he''s died many times. Not just on stage - though he''ll tell you about that - but in other ways, too. There''s been the death of a childhood dream. The death of his panel-show career. And then there was the time he died inside and nearly lost it all . . .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEye-opening, revealing and painfully funny, this is a book about mortification, failure and all the times life doesn''t work out as planned. But it also wisely questions whether the things we strive for - recognition, success, the approval of others - are really the things that matter. It''s a book about death that reminds us how to live.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e''Mark Watson makes the base metal of failure into comedy gold'' Adam Kay\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57195931992446,"sku":"NW9781399607698","price":12.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781399607698.jpg?v=1778539816","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-eu\/products\/mortification","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
