Description
El día que Nietzsche lloró by Irvin D. Yalom is a gripping and suspenseful novel that explores the early days of psychoanalysis. In 1882, a young Lou Salomé seeks out renowned doctor Josef Breuer to help her friend Friedrich Nietzsche, a troubled philosopher on the brink of disaster. Breuer agrees to use a radical new technique - psychoanalysis - without Nietzsche's knowledge, and the stakes are high. As Yalom masterfully weaves this fictional encounter into the narrative, he reveals the intricate web of personal intrigue and intellectual curiosity that shaped the birth of psychoanalysis. This is a fascinating and engaging story that offers a fresh perspective on the history of philosophy and psychology.
