The collection of 10 absorbing tales by master psychotherapist Irvin D. Yalom uncovers the mysteries, frustrations, pathos, and humor at the heart of the therapeutic encounter. In recounting his patients' dilemmas, Yalom not only gives us a rare and enthralling glimpse into their personal desires and motivations but also tells us his own story as he struggles to reconcile his all-too-human responses with his sensibility as a psychiatrist. Not since Freud has an author done so much to clarify what goes on between a psychotherapist and a patient.

The audio version of the book includes an exclusive interview with Dr. Yalom.

Part of book club selection, this book was super long for no apparent reason at times. Out of the 10+ tales of psychology, I felt like 2-3 were compelling while the others were rather boring. Most of the book was condescending to patients and at times prejudiced. I gave 5 stars for the poor guy who had to perform the book.
