An acclaimed author and psychoanalyst shares moving true stories from his practice to explore the central question of our lives: How do we find and keep love?
âA profound meditation on love and healing. Powerful and important. Essential reading.ââTara Westover, author of Educated
In these brief, powerful accounts drawn from his more than thirty-five years counseling patients, Stephen Grosz brings us into the lives of people who cannot fully connect to their loved ones. Grosz helps his patients map their internal worlds to uncover the unconscious fears and desires sabotaging their relationships.
Hoping to avoid loveâs end, one man obsessively tends to everyone around him. Another retreats from the world, unable to live fully until heâs able to confront the failure of a tragic romance. Adultery and betrayal tear apart two married couples, but in surprising ways, love persists between the spouses.
These true stories of everyday sufferingâand profound reliefâdisplay Groszâs deep understanding of the wayward heart and the obstacles to enduring connection.
