Absolutely delightful for those who like psychoanalysis and philosophical thought. No need to know beforehand Breuer and Nietzsche to read this "novel", let alone to be initiated to therapeutic practices. The clever construction of novel bathes us in this time in brilliant intellectual proliferation (literature, medicine, music) in Vienna in the late nineteenth century. The little epilogue is remarkable (do not read it before!). You will spend delightful moments. Read in English. I do not know the quality of the French translation.
