The Purloined Clinic: Selected Writings by Janet Malcolm
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2.0 MB | Retail
Overview: The Purloined Clinic is a retrospective of essays, reviews, and reports that reflect the range and depth of Janet Malcolm’s engagement with psychology, criticism, art, and literature.
She examines aspects of "that absurdist collaboration," the psychoanalytic dialogue, from which come "small, stray sell recognitions that no other human relationship yields, brought forward under conditions…that no other human relationship could survive." She addresses such subjects as Tom Wolfe’s vendetta against modern architecture, Milan Kundera’s literary experiments, and Vaclav Havel’s prison letters. She explores the somewhat deflated world of post-revolutionary Prague, guides us through the labyrinthine New York art world of the eighties, and takes us behind the one-way mirror of Salvador Minuchin’s school of family therapy.And to each subject she brings the incisive skepticism and dazzling epigrammatic style that are her hallmarks.
