I believed not until a member of my family killed themselves and the pain it caused persuaded me that it's both selfish and stupid. But Critchley reminds us that our responses to suicide are distorted by anger, prejudice and inarticulacy. We must, he argues, stop looking for life's great meaning and instead savour "little daily miracles, matches struck in the darkness". And we must talk about suicide without shame or sanctimony. This book is a good place to start.' --Max Liu, Independent
'...this intense book is an instance of thought born in the hour of anguish, which eloquently makes the case for suicide not as an act to be pitilessly condemned, but a possibility for which any of us might be thankful.'- Rob Doyle, Irish Times
'This delicate and sensitive book only aims "to try to understand", not to aspire to a goal beyond our ambit. we may gain something from the attempt- as we gain plenty from Critchley's writing- but we can never gain everything, a complete sense of what suicide, to put it falteringly, means. To have this would require us to stand outside of life, to see it in the round. But we can't, and that's our curse- in the fullest sense, the condition of living a life. Notes on Suicide shows us not how to understand, but how to realise what we don't know, can never know, and what it is to deal with that awareness.' --Cal Revely-Calder, 3:AM Magazine
