Freakonomics 
Let’s Talk About Hard Things
£14.99
Death. Sex. Money. Tricky subjects we’re taught to avoid in polite conversation. But if they’re so unpleasant, why do so many people tune in regularly to hear Anna Sale asking perfect strangers about them? What if, rather than declaring them off-limits, we could all benefit from discussing them more? In this book, Sale – the host of cult podcast Death, Sex & Money, which tackles life’s hard questions – takes her quest for more honest communication into her own life. She considers her history of facing (and sometimes avoiding) difficult subjects, both personal and cultural; she reflects on race, wealth, inequality, love, grief, death, power – all the things that shape our daily lives, the things we should be talking about, but often struggle to.
