In Vienna, 1882, Lou Salomé seeks the help of the renowned physician Josef Breuer to treat Friedrich Nietzsche, a tormented philosopher with suicidal tendencies. Breuer, influenced by the theories of his disciple Sigmund Freud, agrees to psychoanalyze Nietzsche without his knowledge, unaware that he is being victim of an intrigue. With a narrative full of suspense, Irvin D. Yalom explores the birth of psychoanalysis, imagining the meeting between Nietzsche and Breuer, offering a reflection on philosophy and Western culture.
Irvin David Yalom is an American existential psychiatrist who is an emeritus professor of psychiatry at Stanford University, as well as author of both fiction and nonfiction.
