Longlisted for the Guardian First Book Award, a Sunday Times bestseller and Radio 4 Book of the Week, our January non-fiction choice is a set of short stories with a difference: The Examined Life by psychoanalyst Stephen Grosz is based on real-life sessions with his patients. Wonderfully Jargon-free, there are chapters covering a broad range of topics including why we lie, what we fear and how we change.
If you're interested to read and come back and discuss, apply for a free copy. We're also giving you the chance to post a question to Stephen Grosz. All questions must be posted to this thread before the end of January and we'll post up his answers in early February. Everyone who joins the discussion or posts a question will be entered into a draw to win a full set of Vintage books' Shelf help books. Find out more and apply for free copy of An Examined Life.
