Description
Irvin Yalom was born in Washington, DC, on June 13, 1931, to parents who had fled Russia shortly after the first world war. Growing up in the inner city, he found solace in indoor reading and the local library, which he would visit twice a week to stock up on supplies. This memoir is a deeply personal account of his life, from his childhood in a segregated city to his work as a psychiatrist, where he shares his own self-analysis and the stories of his patients.
