Description
Hysteria by Jessica Gross is a deeply perceptive and honest novel about confronting one's past. A young woman's life becomes increasingly complicated when she meets a bartender who bears an uncanny resemblance to Sigmund Freud.
As their relationship deepens, she begins to untangle the complex web of her Oedipal leanings, upbringing, and desires, with the help of Freud - or whoever he may be. The result is a darkly funny and unflinchingly honest exploration of contemporary life's deepest fears.
This debut novel showcases Gross's unique voice and perspective, making it a compelling read for anyone interested in psychology, relationships, and self-discovery.
