Yardsticks For Failure is the story of the most frantic two years of Ivo Graham’s already quite frantic life, 2022-2024, two years of tasks and tears and everything in between. The amount of stuff Ivo packs into these two years will excite you and exhaust you, enthral you and appal you, and many more carefully choreographed pairs of verbs if you’d like this sentence to be even longer. There are some short sentences in this book, such as this one.

And this one. But there are some long old sentences too, sentences that take you on whole thrilling adventures all by themselves, sentences that are rich in music and memory, mischief and mourning, sentences that bring you right alongside Ivo in his train-chasing, gamefacing,name-dropping, heart-stopping chaos of an existence. No one lives like Ivo does, and no one writes like him either.
