Confessions from the Couch

The unconscious? The Oedipus complex? The castration complex? Neurosis ? The objet a ? What are they? And what does one say to an analyst? What happens during an analysis? For those asking questions about psychoanalysis, Confessions from the Couch gives clear and simple answers. The principal psychoanalytical notions, both Freudian and Lacanian, are explained and illustrated with chosen extracts from actual analytical sessions.
