More about the book

The narrative explores the introduction of psychoanalysis to the Polish intelligentsia through the lives of Polish-Jewish disciples of Freud, such as Ludwig Jekels and Helene Deutsch. It highlights their journeys from a divided Poland to various countries, including the U.S., where they shaped the cultural landscape of psychoanalysis. This account reflects on themes of migration, social mobility, and the transformation of Freudian thought from its radical origins in Vienna to a more commercialized American therapeutic practice, stripped of its political roots.
