Description
Freud's Sister A Novel by Goce Smilevski is a haunting and deeply felt novel based on a true story. In 1938, Sigmund Freud was granted an exit visa, allowing him to leave Vienna as the Nazis closed in, while his four sisters were sent to the Terezín concentration camp. The novel explores the life of Adolfina, Freud's sister who was spurned by her mother and never married, but found solace in her close relationship with her brother. With astonishing insight, the book brings to life the cultural and artistic splendor of Vienna in the early twentieth century, as well as Adolfina's own dreams and aspirations. A searing portrayal of a woman lost to the shadows of history, Freud's Sister is a powerful exploration of family, love, and loss.
