Description
The catastrophic love affair characterized by sexual obsession is a phenomenon that psychiatrist Peter Cleave has spent years studying. As a leading expert in his field, he has seen it all before - until now. A new case forces him to confront the limits of his knowledge and challenge everything he thought he knew about human desire. A complex web of relationships and motivations unfolds as Cleave becomes increasingly entangled in the personal lives of those around him. His own professional detachment is put to the test as he grapples with the consequences of his latest discovery. This Penguin Essential edition presents a gripping and thought-provoking exploration of the darker aspects of human nature, one that will leave readers questioning their assumptions about love, obsession, and the human psyche.
