Praise risk, Anne

Why read it?
There is no more explicit title than Praise the Risk. In her work, Anne approaches sometimes through psychoanalysis, sometimes through philosophy, most often through the interweaving of the two fields, themes, moments, crucial moments where the fear of risk is nestled in our lives. She analyzes and exemplifies them to better encourage her readers to go "beyond" and take the risk of.

Anne’s pragmatic writing is soft and fluid. Poetic. This writing is one more reason to read A Praise for Risk. Anne enlightens and makes travelers travel. Simple and delicate, it carries.

Do we learn anything from it?
"The breakup must have become a matter of style..."
The author offers her thoughts. Like chronicles, its chapters are short and make it possible to understand without getting lost, and to question oneself without going round in circles.

Anne praises risk by dissecting our safe society, where risk-taking is often considered only in terms of individual survival and "where the precautionary principle has become the norm". A psychoanalyst philosopher, she alternately calls upon old psychoanalysis sessions that she herself has been able to lead, to the reflections and works of philosophers, or even to literature.

Through her enlightened reflections on passion, forgetting, love, rupture, anguish, the unknown, words, belief, scandal, childhood, writing, Anne creates a space of freedom, humanity, questioning, and introspection that everyone is free to visit through the prism of his or her own life. The reader only learns what he or she wants to remember.

What to understand?
"Depression is the opposite of quitting. It means not being able to relax, unwind, offload oneself in time, abandon oneself to the outside world, to risk one's life."
Anne is a guide here. She intends to elevate the thoughts of her readers, she points them in the right direction, leaving them at their crossroads.

Everyone will take the risk of understanding. Maybe it's time to leave space to the unknown, leave room for risk. At the risk of finding each other, of finding each other. Or even get lost.
