Description: In this work of rare insight and imagination, Irvin Yalom, whom the Washington Post Book World calls "like Freud . . . a graceful and canny writer", once again proves himself an intrepid explorer of the psyche as he guides his patients -- and himself -- toward transformation. With eloquent detail and sharp-eyed observation, Yalom treats us to a richly rewarding, almost illicit glimpse into the therapist's heart and mind and introduces us to a memorable cast of characters. At once wildly entertaining and deeply thoughtful, this splendid follow-up to Love's Executioner will delight Yalom's many fans while inviting new readers to discover the special pleasures this compassionate and fully engaged therapist brings to the craft of writing as he illuminates the unique potential of every human relationship.
