Summary
Irwin D. Jalom: The Executioner of Love and Other Psychotherapy Stories
Translation from English: Marija Stamenković
A collection of ten exciting stories by the famous psychotherapist Irwin D. Jalom reveals the mysteries, frustrations, pathos and humor at the heart of therapeutic sessions.
Telling about the dilemmas of his patients, the narrator not only gives us a fascinating insight into their personal desires and motivations, but also reveals his own story from the angle therapist: his attempt to reconcile his all-too-human reactions with the sensibility that every psychiatrist should possess.
Few people, since Freud's time, have tried to show with such clarity and openness what happens between a psychotherapist and a patient behind closed doors.
In this work, Jalom offers us a novelistic, yet analytical and precise reconstruction of the intriguing dialogue between a psychiatrist and a patient
