“One of the book's key strengths is its ability to make readers reflect on the way they perceive words and their meanings. Sam's discussion on how words can evolve, change, and carry different connotations is eye-opening. The concept that individuals have the agency to redefine the meanings of words in their lives is empowering.”

“Sam Yankelevitch has come up with a marvelous idea in his book An Interview with Failure.
I enjoyed it from start to finish. I myself had already used this saying, “There is no failure, only feedback” and that is what Sam's book is about. It is also about redefining and renaming the word "failure", and Sam makes it sound a lot of fun.
The book was fun to read, full of interesting insights and good analogies, and I recommend it to almost anyone. Most of us would like to succeed, perhaps more than we are, and this book will cheer you up, give you some great ideas, and give you confidence for the future.”
