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\u003e Eye-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":"Phoenix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55257140920663,"sku":"9781399607698","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/4569\/5575\/files\/9781399607698.jpg?v=1791144282","url":"https:\/\/somiibooks.com\/products\/mortification-mark-watson-9781399607698","provider":"Somiibooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
