«‘With a rare blend of audacity and authenticity, van Deurzen acknowledges the genuine anguish that arises when lives fall apart, whether through extreme personal adversity, system-shattering socio-political events or an ineluctable and impersonal global pandemic.

Whatever happens to you, it’s what you do next that matters.’ – Roger Casale, Secretary General of New Europeans.»
