Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book looks beyond both theory and practice to the politics and cultural resonances of psychoanalysis-in the torments and anxiety of artistic endeavour, and in the urgent and wearying sense of the blindness of our troubled history and politics, in Israel and in South America.
