Michel M'Uzan written with a certain elegance and a certain lightness, without dogmatism. That's a lot for a psychoanalyst ... The book is a collection of articles, the problems involved in this genre, namely: repetition, heterogeneity of texts, etc. Some passages "metapsychological" to give you a headache aside, there are some great things, however, in this collection. The concept of death is working fine and important, the unconscious as "scandal" is also defended very well in the long article. Other models (the assignment process, the masochistic movement ...) are more allusive and problematic. It is nonetheless a beautiful book, who does not start his psychoanalytic readings.
