If you missed the excellent talk psychoanalyst Stephen Grosz gave at 5×15 recently, you have another chance to hear him at Daunt Books, Marylebone High Street.
“With deceptive simplicity and gentle wisdom, Grosz teases out a lesson or chases down a fugitive insight. I have distrusted psychoanalysis for years, but I would leap onto Grosz’s couch” (James McConnachie The Sunday Times Books of the Year)
“This moving book of patient portraits by the psychoanalyst Stephen Grosz will make the reader think of Freud’s keenly observed and literary-minded case studies. Writing with sympathy and insight, Mr Grosz distils 25 years of work into a series of slim, piercing chapters that read like a combination of Chekhov and Oliver Sacks” (Michiko Kakutani New York Times)
